At 4756 Oyster Bay Dr in San Jose, CA, Property Advisor Jon Salas and agent Linda Baker from Milestone Realty took on a renovation project with personal ties. The property, previously a rental, had been inherited by the brother of the former owner, who had passed away. Linda, a friend of the previous owner, recognized the potential of the home and brought the opportunity to Jon for a strategic renovation. Valued as is for $1,350,000, the property underwent a $62,090 worth of renovations aimed at maximizing its appeal without excessive costs. Key updates included new flooring, baseboards, and trim to give the home a cohesive and modern look. Fresh interior and exterior paint brightened the space, while the fireplace received a refresh to add a contemporary touch. The bathroom was updated, and both hardscape and softscape improvements boosted the outdoor aesthetic. Lighting enhancements throughout the home created a more open and inviting atmosphere.

Once the renovations were complete, the home sold for $1,450,000, delivering a net profit of $37,910 and an impressive 61% return on investment. Linda’s personal connection to the previous owner, paired with Jon’s strategic approach, not only honored the home’s history but also paved the way for a bright new chapter. Together, they transformed the property into a modern, inviting space that resonated with buyers and secured its future.
