100% return on one decision. Here’s how it happened. After 8 years as a rental, my client’s condo was tired. They were ready to sell. But the question was… how?

We mapped out 3 strategies:

• Sell as-is.

• Light updates.

• Full remodel and stage.

Each had very different outcomes.

Selling as-is was easy. Light updates felt safe. But the numbers told a different story. We chose the bold route. Full remodel executed by Viking Construction. Fully staged. Done in weeks. That decision generated a 100% return on their remodel investment. Strategic planning > guessing. Every property has options. The right one depends on the math.
