The before.

This project almost didn’t happen. The executor — a New York State attorney — had already mentally committed to selling to an investor for $350,000. He agreed to meet Silvina at the property, somewhat reluctantly, on a weekend he happened to be in the area. What he didn’t realize: the estate didn’t need to sell fast. It needed to sell smart.

How we helped.

At the Max The Estate™ Consultation, Silvina walked through the property and introduced the executor to the InventorMax™ process — identifying where preparation creates real financial return.

The property needed a focused cleanout, two rooms painted, a popcorn ceiling removed, stained ceiling tiles replaced, electrical work, and a missing garage ceiling section replaced for the CCO. All-in budget: $13,000.

Bill coordinated every contractor, supervised every phase of the renovation, and sourced everything within budget. The executor was off-site for nearly all of it.

Full cleanout needed

MORE cleanout needed!

Before – popcorn ceiling, faded drab walls

After – popcorn ceiling removed and new paint

Before – stained basement ceiling tiles

After – new ceiling section

Before – missing garage ceiling

After – repaired garage ceiling

The end result.

Silvina listed the home and generated 17 offers within four days. The executor chose an offer of $565,000.

After renovation costs ($13,516) and sales costs, the net to the estate from a retail sale was approximately $491,000. The investor’s original offer would have netted roughly $318,000.

$173,000 in extra proceeds. Three heirs. The executor was a hero in the family’s eyes.

In their words.

“OMG Silvina and her team go so far above and beyond what we ever thought a real estate agent could or would do… I am so glad I took a call from Silvina first. We sold the house for nearly double the price we thought we might get from a flipper.”
