CONDO RENOVATION BEFORE AND AFTER
Upgrading your home prior to or immediately after selling is one of the smartest investments you can make. And when you see some of Maser’s condo renovation before and after pictures you will understand why. We have been managing renovations for our clients for over twenty years and no job is too big or too small for us to take on. While master bedroom and master bathroom overhauls can lead to dramatic increases in investment, even small changes such as installing a new lighting fixture or staging your dining room can have big effects on sale price as well.
It’s amazing how much of a difference renovations make to a condo, rental or home. Let the team at Maser walk you though some of our condo renovation before and after success stories and you will see exactly why updating living areas with small things such as a new ceiling light or big things such as custom cabinets can feel like they completely transform a living space from dated to fresh and modern.
Love a property but hate the living room? We can help. Want to sell but are overwhelmed with the updates and repairs that need to be done to get you the most for your money? We can help there too. Let the team at Maser take all the stress of renovating away from you and you’ll be amazed at just how smoothly a condo renovation before and after can go.
Here are just a few examples of the over 400+ success stories the maser team has handled….

12815 Caswell Ave #5, Mar Vista
Project: Kitchen and Bathrooms
This was our sellers dream! They followed our advice to the “T” and they had a record sale in their complex. We recommended they change all of their countertops, paint the entire unit and do professional staging. All in they spent around $40,000 to get it prepped for sale. We also recommended we list it below the market to attract a lot of buyers. Thus, we listed it at $929,000 and within 3 days we had 25 offers and sold it for $1,290,000. That is $361,000 over asking for a cost of $40,000. Do you think it’s worth it? See the property.
