new doors & window installation, bathroom remodel,

At 1214 150th Ave NE in Bellevue, WA, Property Advisor Todd Franklin and agent Amanda Shepherd of Compass worked with a homeowner who had been attempting to renovate the property with a friend-contractor for over four months. Unfortunately, funds ran out before the project could be completed. Seeking a solution, he decided to move forward with a more focused renovation scope, prioritizing the updates that would have the greatest impact on the home’s market value. The $65,811 renovation, funded by Revive, included new door and window installations to modernize and brighten the home. The bathrooms were also remodeled, ensuring a fresh and appealing look for prospective buyers. By focusing on these essential updates, the property was transformed into a polished and competitive listing without requiring additional, drawn-out work.

The results were significant. The home sold for $1,370,000, yielding a $254,189 net profit for the homeowner and an impressive 386% return on investment. Amanda, who connected with the client after responding to a cold email, saw a 30% increase in commission. This project demonstrates the impact of strategic renovations and highlights how even limited scopes can deliver strong results when executed with precision and expertise.
