Pre-Sale Home Renovation Design in Oakland, CA
Optimize Value with Peace of Mind
The Power of Design
At its heart, design isn't merely about aesthetics – it profoundly transforms how a space feels and functions. Our home renovations strategically leverage the power of design to boost your home's market value. Many of our clients sell their homes for 20-40% above their pre-renovation appraisal.
Inspire Buyers with a Vision of Value
In our world, thoughtfully designed home renovations are a powerful tool for creating value. They ignite the imagination of potential buyers, leading to a quick sale at the highest possible price.
HOW WE WORK
We simplify the renovations process & give you maximum peace of mind.
Transformational & Cosmetic Updates
Simply, we prepare soon-to-be-sold and recently purchased homes to be brighter and better for the owners. We do this through renovation—both cosmetic and transformational—centered on the updates that drive the most value.
Return on Investment
Our primary objective is to create the shortest path to value through home renovations. We are confident in our ability to know the current market and home-buying demographics to strategically recommend plans that increase value.
Licensed Professionals
Did you know that not everyone in the home renovation business is fully licensed and insured? We make sure we are covering all of our bases to fully reduce liability for listing agents, sellers, and even future buyers. We are committed to doing it right.
Proven Process
We know when to take the work off of your plate and when to let you step in and shine. After nearly two decades of experience, our process creates a beautiful design that works—we know how to drive value and do it in a way that’s high-quality, efficient, and safe.
