Combining modern and classic features can boost your home’s remodel value.

Have you ever wondered how much you can make from a high-value home remodel? Today, I’m excited to take you behind the scenes of a remodel project that I’ve been working on for over two years. This home was initially purchased for $980,000, and with a carefully planned $200,000 remodel, it’s now projected to sell for around $1.6 to $1.7 million. Let me show you how we transformed this property step-by-step from its original state to a beautifully redesigned home.

I hope that you find this helpful. Remember: if you put more thought and investment into a home—whether you have a budget of $25,000 or $200,000—you can achieve a higher selling price. This doesn’t just apply to remodels; staging, marketing, and a solid sales plan are also critical components in maximizing your home’s value.
