the feeling of an entire block.
Neighbors notice. Pride grows. A
house that once looked forgotten
becomes
part
of
the
neighborhood again.
That’s one of the parts of our
work at Homestead Road that
means the most to us.
Since 2007, we’ve helped more
than
3,000
homeowners,
participated in over $1 billion in
real estate transactions, and
invested more than $50 million in
housing revitalization.
But the numbers aren’t what you
notice when you drive past a
completed home.
You notice the lights on inside.
You notice flowers near the front
steps, a grill on the patio, bikes in
the
driveway
or
holiday
decorations appearing a few
months later.
Someone lives there again.
Let Us Handle the
Renovation
Of course, there is another side
to renovation: someone has to
pay for it, manage it and live with
the uncertainty.
A homeowner may know exactly
what a property needs and still
have no desire to coordinate
contractors, make dozens of
design
decisions
or
risk
discovering another expensive
problem after the work begins.
Maybe the home was inherited.
Maybe the owner is moving
quickly. Maybe the repairs simply
don’t make financial sense for
their situation.
For some people, renovating
before selling is the right choice.
For others, selling as-is can
provide a much simpler path
forward.That’s an important part
of what we do at Homestead
Road: one homeowner can move
on without taking on a major
construction project, while the
house receives the investment it
needs for what comes next.
