Flooring, baseboard & trim, exterior & interior painting, bathroom refresh, and lightings.

When the homeowner’s mother moved into assisted living, the family made the decision to sell the home to help fund her ongoing care. While the property had strong potential, it needed updates to meet buyer expectations and feel move-in ready for the market. Working alongside agents Staci Silverberg and Donna Marks of RE/MAX One, Property Advisor Jerome Droll developed a focused renovation plan designed to maximize value without over-improving the home. The updates included new flooring, refreshed baseboards and trim, interior and exterior paint, bathroom improvements, and updated lighting throughout the property.

With a renovation investment of $46,770, the home sold for $950,000, significantly outperforming its $800,000 as-is value. The project unlocked an additional $103,230 in profit, delivered a 220.72% ROI, and increased commission potential by 18.75%. By making strategic improvements before listing, the family was able to create a stronger financial outcome while helping support the next chapter of care for their mother.
