Before Revive
The homeowners knew the home had more potential, but needed a clear plan to unlock it.
Erin O’Brien-Kerr wasn’t just the agent on this sale—she was also the homeowner. With plans to move to Panama, she needed to maximize her home’s value before listing it. Working with Revive and Property Advisor Amanda Steele, Revive invested $54,708 into strategic updates, including a kitchen refresh, exterior painting, drywall repairs, and hardscaping. These improvements helped improve the home’s curb appeal and overall desirability, making it stand out in the competitive Scotts Valley market.
The results speak for themselves.
Originally valued at $1,700,000, the home sold for $1,848,000—resulting in a $93,292 profit. With a 171% ROI, Erin successfully boosted her home’s value, secured a strong sale, and was able to move forward with her plans for Panama with some extra money in her pocket.
