Yarraville — Pre-Sale Renovation

Full property preparation for market · Inner West Melbourne

$100k

Budget

Pre-sale

Purpose

The brief

The owners were preparing to sell a well-loved family home in Yarraville and wanted to maximise their sale price without overcapitalising. They needed someone to coordinate the entire process — trades, staging, and timeline — so they could focus on their move without the stress.

Scope of work

  • Full internal and external repaint
  • Kitchen and dining area retiled
  • Kitchen refurbished — new benchtops and appliances
  • Decking repolished and repaired
  • Garden upgraded and landscaped
  • Professional staging arranged and managed

Every dollar was focused on buyer perception. The property went to market looking significantly more valuable than the renovation cost — every decision made for return at sale, not personal preference.
