We found this great 2,660 sqft 2-unit in this fantastic Cole Valley location. It's definitely a fixer-upper, but see what you can do to remodel it and achieve a potential $1M+ in value.

We started the remodel of our penthouse condo back in June. See how we were able to cost-effectively refresh and refinish the entire 2,200 sqft space of this 3-bedroom, 3 bathroom home in this short video that showcases the before and after results. This is a fine example of how to realize your dream home. We represented our clients in the purchase of their condo. We found one that had a great layout and the right square footage and number of bedrooms/bathrooms that matched our clients needs. However, cosmetically, it was outdated - the kitchen, the bathrooms, floor color, light fixtures were all an 80s decor. Initially, they didn't consider the property at all because it was outdated and not to their taste. So, we helped them see that what they didn't like could be addressed. We could negotiate a favorable purchase price and use the savings to remodel their home to their own aesthetic. The Kitchen Remodel Our clients wanted a sexy looking kitchen that also wouldn't blow out their budget. We made the countertop the focal point, using imported Black Panther Quartzite, and extended the counter with a full waterfall and backsplash. We went from a 26" to a 30" unique black Blanco sink and state-of-the-art Hansgrohe faucet. To be within budget, the cabinet doors were replaced with a cool gray slate color versus completely demo'ing the cabinets entirely. To save space, we built-in the trash/storage and under-the-cabinet LED lighting. The fun part was that the clients got to choose their own hardware for the cabinet doors and appliances. In addition to the kitchen, we also restained the floors, replaced all of the cabinet doors in the bathrooms to match the kitchen, and replaced lighting throughout. See the before and after of the kitchen in the following video. Meet Alice & Chris, my in-laws. They had wanted to remodel their home for a long time. In fact, they hadn't done a full remodel in 27 years! They just didn't know where to start. So, I helped them design, source the right materials and contractors to fully modernize their home with new flooring, kitchen, fireplace and lighting throughout. See the transformation in this video. I just closed escrow on this charming 2-unit Victorian fixer-upper at 739 -741 Clayton St. After considerable renovations & updates, strategic marketing and price negotiations, I was able to increase the final sales price by over $500 thousand. See the video to see what I did to achieve the highest potential price. We started our large kitchen/living area remodel a few months ago. Let's see where we're at, just a month before completion. See how our new listing at 739-741 Clayton will be remodeled into 2 high-end, highly desirable homes by focusing on the heart of the home: the kitchens and bathrooms. These areas were currently outdated and not fully functional, which is why they previously didn't sell at the desired price. Step back into our phase 3 of our kitchen remodel project to see how we've added new structural beams and are preparing for the plumbing and electrical. Watch the next video, covering our kitchen remodel, where we'll cover the start of construction and what it means to do a "down-to-the-stud" renovation. Be sure to catch the first video, where we talk about the reason for the remodel and how this was well thought out, during the buying process. See this video. |
