Move-in-Ready Elgin Refresh
Basic pre-listing updates allowed this Texas home to sell for far over the as-is price and scored the sellers over $96,000 in profit.
eXp agent, Alicia Hill, believes that the three most important updates to make before selling include fresh paint, updated flooring, and a refreshed kitchen. That is precisely what she partnered with Curbio to tackle in this charming Austin area home.
Alicia knew this house would sit on the market for months if she tried to sell as is. To create a move-in ready home that would appeal to buyers we tackled the following:
- fresh paint throughout
- removed carpet and installed luxury vinyl tile flooring in the living areas
- modernized the kitchen
- updated curb appeal
I partner with Curbio to help families by doing minor to major updates so that they can get the most amount of money in the least amount of time – and with the least hassle.

We opened up the living areas by selecting consistent flooring that runs smoothly through the living room, dining room, and kitchen.

The kitchen got a full face lift with new stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and modern backsplash. We stayed under budget by repairing the existing cabinets instead of replacing them.

In the main bathroom, we addressed a leak and patched the damaged drywall around the tub. Along with fresh caulk and a deep clean, this room was as good as new.

A quality refresh is all about the details. We patched drywall where doorknobs had damaged walls, and swapped outlet covers.
