Case Study: Saratoga Home Transformation (Before & After)

Case Study: Saratoga Home Transformation (Before & After)

The Amy McCafferty Team was brought on to help prepare a Saratoga home for sale. This special property sat on over an acre and was just minutes from the quaint shopping and dining of downtown Saratoga. 

When we walked through the property, we recommended a few cost-effective changes to make the property attractive to today's buyer pool and garner a competitive sales price for the homeowners. With the approval of the sellers, we called our team of highly-qualified and professional vendors and got to work. We kept to a tight schedule, watched the budget closely, and provided the homeowners with updates every step of the way. 

Decluttering

First, we helped the sellers clear out the home of their personal belongings. This can be a daunting task, but our team was able to provide assistance to quickly and efficiently declutter the home.

Painting 

Next, we tackled the interior and exterior of the house, giving it a fresh coat of paint that would make it stand out. We paid special attention to the trim and windows, making sure they were clean and well-maintained.

Flooring

In addition to painting, we also removed and replaced the old carpet in the home. The new carpet was a neutral color that added a fresh, modern look to the space.

Landscaping

We understand the importance of presenting a well-maintained and attractive exterior when preparing a home for sale in Saratoga. Our team trimmed and pruned overgrown and unkempt shrubs and trees to create a clean and well-defined look. We removed fallen leaves and other debris that may be distracting to potential buyers. This added curb appeal and made the home stand out in the neighborhood. We cleaned up what was once a garden and raised the canopies of the large redwood trees. 

Staging

Finally, we deep cleaned and staged the home to have it ready and presentable for buyers. We paid attention to every detail, making sure the home was spotless and inviting. Our stagers brought in beautiful pieces to give buyers a sense of how the space could be used.

In the end, the property was transformed and ready to hit the market. With its refreshed and modern look, we were able to sell their home quickly and for a competitive price. The changes were well-worth the investment and our team was proud to have helped make this happen.

The sellers were thrilled with the results and left us a lovely review thanking us for our hard work and dedication. Here’s what the sellers had to say about working with the Amy McCafferty Team:
