🏡 Success Story: Young Street, Richmond, VA

We purchased Young Street off-market on May 23, 2025 for $173,000 — a hidden gem ready for transformation.

With a targeted $50,000 renovation, we completely reimagined the home:
✨ Added stairs to the attic for full access
✨ Finished out two spacious rooms upstairs
✨ Installed a brand-new full bathroom
✨ Staged it to perfection for maximum market appeal

Just 4 days after listing, it sold on October 27, 2025 for $390,000.

💰 Purchase Price: $173,000
🔨 Renovation Cost: $50,000
🏠 Sale Price: $390,000
📆 Days on Market: 4
💵 Profit (before closing costs): ≈ $167,000

This project is a perfect example of how creative vision, strategic upgrades, and professional staging can turn an overlooked property into a massive win.

We didn’t just flip a house — we created opportunity, equity, and a story of success.

    I'm shocked that you could get a full bathroom and two bedrooms in an unfinished attic for $50,000, let along paint.  The house looks lovely and modern.  Is that a new paved driveway to the side?  Outside is much improved, from tidy of lawn area to paint job.  Good job!

    What are you doing to source this off market, direct mail?
