New flooring, interior & exterior painting, bathrooms refresh, kitchen remodel, and lighting enhancements.

Sejal Parekh, a Compass agent serving Bay Area homeowners for nearly two decades, was approached by a client preparing for a retirement move up north. Knowing the home had untapped potential, Sejal partnered with Revive Property Advisor Steven Feeko to develop a renovation strategy focused on maximizing value while keeping the process manageable and efficient for the homeowner. With a renovation budget of $106,008, the team carefully selected upgrades that would deliver the strongest return on investment. The transformation included new flooring, fresh interior and exterior paint, bathroom renovations, a remodeled kitchen, and upgraded lighting throughout the home. Together, the improvements turned the property into a more modern, move-in-ready space designed to strongly appeal to buyers while allowing the homeowner to focus on planning her next chapter.

The renovated property ultimately sold for $1,682,000, which was $382,000 above the home’s original as-is value. The project generated a net profit of $275,992 for the homeowner and delivered an impressive 260% return on investment. Sejal Parekh also saw a 29% increase in commission, while helping her client move confidently into retirement with a stronger financial outcome and peace of mind.
