Below is a quick summary of the strategy Warren suggested to the seller as the way to maximize the selling price of the unit. The seller implemented Warren’s suggestions and the benefits show in the asking-price offer the seller accepted during the first week of marketing.
Replace deteriorated deck
The unit’s deck was heavily deteriorated. The decking and rails were too rotted for for a simple power washing and re-staining.
Instead, the sellers did the smart thing and had a new deck installed. Warren connected the sellers with the contractor who did the work.
Repurpose a room to appeal to buyers
There was a room on the first floor, located just off the kitchen. This room had an unclear function. The sellers used it as place for a kitty litter tray and some old, outmoded video gaming equipment. The room lacked a window and was too small to be a desirable family room. It couldn’t be marketed as a home office since there already was a nice home office in another room on the first floor. And leaving the room as the “kitty litter room” was not going to be helpful to the marketing!
The marketing opportunity was to showcase the room in way that would appeal to buyers most likely to purchase the property. Warren hit on a great solution: stage the room as a playroom for young children! Demonstrating the room as a playroom was an ideal way to make the first floor much more inviting to buyers with young kids. Being right off the kitchen meant a parent preparing a meal could keep an eye on the child. And a child safety gate would easily control access.
While there were no youngsters currently living at the home, the sellers borrowed children’s furniture and items from friends. The result was a very emotionally involving room that was a big hit with the family who bought the condo. These buyers had a toddler and fell in love with idea of the playroom just off the kitchen. By demonstrating the use of the room as a playroom, Warren and the seller created a highly functional and useful feature out of what otherwise would have been viewed by many buyers as an odd, orphan room. This materially helped sell the condo!
