Project: Gerona
Gerona was a long-held family home with strong fundamentals including an excellent floor plan and an unusually large backyard but years of deferred maintenance made its potential difficult to see. The goal was not to redesign the house, but to clarify it: remove obstacles, make disciplined updates, and prepare it for its next chapter.
Timeline: 6 weeks
Scope: Cosmetic renovation and repositioning
Outcome: 11 offers · $100,000+ over list
Jessica’s Perspective
Hands-on execution and listing preparation
“Being physically inside the house changed how I understood it. Working room by room made it clear where effort actually paid off and where restraint mattered more. That judgment shaped both the work and the outcome.”
Grace’s Perspective
Vision and listing agent
“From the start, the focus was on positioning the home clearly in the market to drive competition and close with strength. That meant aligning preparation decisions with buyer expectations, pricing strategy, and timing — so interest converted into offers and momentum carried through to closing.”
