So you’re ready to sell… but everyone’s telling you to make “some updates.” What does that even mean? New floors? Fresh cabinets? A full bathroom glow-up? And if you do touch the bathroom…what vanity, what tile, do you even need tile, and do buyers here care more about double sinks or precious counter space? Is a Riobel showerhead worth it, or will a Home Depot hero do the trick?
This is where we come in.
We offer a full A-to-Z, done-for-you transformation plan. Jenn: designer, contractor, and licensed realtor—steps into your home, completes a valuation and design audit, and creates a strategic improvement plan tailored to your ideal buyers. We study the top-performing comps in your exact micro-neighbourhood (because in Toronto, three blocks can be the difference between shaker doors and sleek grips) and design upgrades that drive real value, not guesswork.
And when the work is done, Jenn personally designs and stages your home for free so you hit the market looking like a million bucks (and selling for more).
Their 2 bed, 2 bath row house in Toronto’s west end was ripe with potential, but it needed thoughtful (and strategic updates).
We took care of every detail for Taes & Peter; pulling together a home improvement plan, completing all of the work, a seamless design process, and of course the highest quality staging. For us, doing this work isn’t a job; it’s a labour of love, creativity, and craftsmanship. We think of every detail that a future buyer will consider and then we create a masterpiece that you won’t find anywhere else, and market it as such.
