Neglected Melbourne Property Transformed with Smart Renovations
$200k over reserve, $317k increase in value

This Melbourne property had been poorly maintained and neglected, but through strategic, budget-conscious renovations, we dramatically enhanced its market appeal and value.

A clear example of how professional property renovation and pre-sale preparation can transform even a neglected home into a highly desirable, market-ready property delivering superior results.

From Worn to Wonderful. Bigger $$ Return.

Project Overview

  • Investment: $80,000
  • Return: $300,000
  • Objective: Bring this home back to life and attract buyers with expert pre-sale improvements.
  • Initial Situation: This home required both essential maintenance and thoughtful cosmetic upgrades to attract buyers and enhance its value. The garden had become overgrown, and the interior needed a thorough refresh and deep clean to bring the space back to life.

The Results Speak for Themselves

  • Pre-renovation estimated value: Approx. $800,000 – $850,000
  • Advertised range: $900,000 – $990,000
  • Final sale price at Auction: $1, 167,000

Scope of Works

  • Interior & Exterior Enhancements: Painting throughout, new benchtops, garden tidy, new plants
  • Kitchen & Bathroom Upgrades: New benchtops, new cooktop, sink and mixer, new toilets and tapware
  • Fixtures & Finishes: New carpet and new lighting
  • Structural & Cosmetic: Garage roller door repairs, new decking

Why This Project Stands Out

This Melbourne property stood out for its potential. Through strategic pre-sale renovations, interior refresh, and garden upgrades, we maximised its market appeal and increased its sale price.
