From Neglected Rental to Ready-to-Sell Home
The Challenge
Our client owned a one-bedroom flat that had been rented out for years and left in a shocking state by the outgoing tenant.
Faced with a property in complete disrepair, he wanted to get it market ready in the shortest time possible with a limited spend but maximum visual impact.
We delivered fast.
Our Role
Our brief was to turn a neglected rental flat into a sale-ready home, keeping costs under control while achieving the best possible presentation and sale value, all within ten days.
Our Approach:Fast, Focused, Effective
From the first meeting we moved quickly, project managing the entire transformation:
- Cleared the flat of abandoned furniture, rubbish and damaged items
- Stripped out worn, stained carpets
- Completed full internal redecoration to breathe life back into the space
- Recarpeted with fresh, neutral flooring
- Managed the replacement of appliances and completed electrical upgrades
- Secured gas safety certification
- Deep cleaned from top to bottom
- Styled and staged the flat with temporary furniture, art, accessories and fresh flowers
- Transformed the garden, cleared, planted and styled with potted greenery
- All completed in just nine days.
