Modern Chicago Remodel

This kitchen remodel allowed real estate agent, Michael Hall, to meet the target list price for his sellers.

We partnered with Baird & Warner agent, Michael Hall, to achieve his sellers’ target list price and significantly reduce the time he spent getting the listing ready for market. After Michael’s sellers wouldn’t budge on price—even after 40 showings and no sale—he turned to Curbio to advise on, manage, and execute the updates necessary to achieve his sellers’ target list price.

Home buyers were uninterested in purchasing the home at the asking price because the kitchen was outdated, and they didn’t want to take on renovations themselves. Michael told his sellers that they would either need to drop the price or take on some home improvements to add the home’s value. With Curbio in his back pocket, he had the perfect solution for their predicament—making a difficult conversation much easier.

After we updated the kitchen and dining areas, Michael put the home back on the market and it sold in 5 days after only 6 showings and 4 offers. Agents are using Curbio at the beginning to avoid misalignment around list price and get listings sold faster. You can walk into presentations and pricing conversations confidently, armed with Curbio’s complete home improvement solution for Realtors®.

We brightened up the room by replacing the dark counter to with light quartz, adding a fresh backsplash, and installing a more modern sink.

We installed new cabinets in the dining area to make up for those that were removed in the kitchen – keeping the room open while meeting storage needs.
