Swift Melrose Refresh
This Boston area home had all the makings of a great sale but was missing something in the details to really fly off the market. Some standard preparations were made, and as a result, the homeowners saw a 620% return on their investment after project costs.
With an expansive backyard, four bedrooms, and an attached garage, this home was in a desirable spot but lacked some finishing touches. Some basic changes were all that was needed to make the home market-ready, so we focused on:
- Interior painting
- Lighting upgrades
- Miscellaneous fixes
It is amazing what such simple updates can do. In the end, the homeowners saw an added profit of $108,508 after project costs for an astounding return on investment of 620%. Not only did the seller walk away with quite a bit of extra dough in their pocket, but also the listing agent was happy with the results. Chris McNamara of eXp Realty exclaimed, “Larry [the Curbio Project Manager] is awesome to work with. Great communication, timely delivery of the work, and prompt to come back and do minor touch-ups to items upon request!”
Whether you are the listing agent or the home seller, you do not want to miss out. If you are ready to sell for more but are not sure how to get started, contact us today. You can also try our home improvement app.

The sunroom was a nice bonus space that needed just a bit of touching up. We painted the walls, ceilings, trim, and paneling to help brighten up the room even more.
