CLIENT SUCCESS STORY - 100% ROI

October 9, 2026

We recently had a condo listing coming up in a building where a similar unit on the same floor had recently sold for $1,425.000. A great price, but rather than simply accept that as our benchmark, we saw an opportunity to help our client do better. 

Over the course of two months, we coordinated strategic upgrades to both bathrooms. We handled the permits and HOA approvals, selected finishes we knew would resonate with buyers, and coordinated our trusted vendors from start to finish. 

Check out the before and afters:

Before-and-after kitchen renovation, from a cluttered dark kitchen to a bright white kitchen with island.Bathroom renovation before and after, from dark wood cabinetry and tiled tub to a bright vanity with brass fixtures.

Renovated bathroom with white subway tile and a blue vanity, shown beside its older version.

Then came the best part: seeing the strategy pay off.

Sale price: $1,525,000 

$50K invested in upgrades ($49,400 to be exact)
$100K increase in sales price
100% ROI in two months

No complicated formulas required.

One of the advantages of selling condos is that truly comparable sales can give us a remarkably clear picture of value. Same building. Same floor plan. Same location. In this case, the comparison made it unusually easy to see exactly what those improvements were worth.

And yes, we’ll take a 100% return in three months any day. 

Getting more for our clients isn't about spending more for the sake of spending more. It's about knowing where an investment can actually move the needle—and having the people and systems in place to make it happen. 

We LOVE to get more for our clients. That's why we've spent over a decade building a system that does just that. 

Curious what improvements could make a difference in your home's value? Let's talk.
