The homeowners knew the home had more potential, but needed a clear plan to unlock it.
Della A. Brewer, a licensed contractor and agent with First Class Realty, brought her renovation and flipping experience to the sale of an inherited property located at 5505 Plumas Avenue in Richmond, California. Working alongside Revive Property Advisor Jon Salas, the team navigated the complexities of a trust sale following the passing of the trustee and the homeowners, with the goal of maximizing value for the property’s four beneficiaries.
To help unlock the home’s full market potential, Revive fronted $148,598 in strategic renovations focused on the areas that would create the greatest impact for buyers. The updates included improvements to the kitchen and bathrooms, as well as essential termite work to strengthen the property’s condition and presentation. Together, the renovations transformed the home into a more competitive and market-ready property while simplifying the process for the family.
The results speak for themselves.
Originally purchased for $600,000 and owned free and clear, the renovated property ultimately sold for $810,000. The project generated a $61,402 profit, delivered a 41.32% return on investment, and increased commission by 35%. The successful transformation created a strong outcome for the beneficiaries while preparing the home for a new chapter with its future owners.
