CASE STUDY · 8214 LARRY PLACE, CHEVY CHASE

The situation: Our seller inherited a home that needed far more than a refresh: years of belongings, dated systems and every room in need of work.

What we did: My team cleared and disposed of the contents, then managed a full top-to-bottom renovation, including a new roof, windows and AC, plus every bathroom and the kitchen redone. We paid for the work up front and were repaid at closing, so our seller never had to come out of pocket. Then we fully staged the home for market.

The result: As-is, the home would have sold for an estimated $800,000. With $250,000 invested, we created immediate value: we listed at $1.4M and sold in 6 days for $1.62M, $220,000 over asking. After repaying the renovation, our seller walked away with roughly $570,000 more than an as-is sale, and the home was featured in UrbanTurf.
