How We Are Helping a Cranberry Township Homeowner Unlock $15,000 in Extra Profit—After Renovation Costs

If you're planning to sell your home in Cranberry Township or anywhere in the Greater Pittsburgh area, here's a real-world example of how smart pre-sale renovations can significantly increase your home's value—without any upfront cost.

The Property: 511 Captain Lee Boss Way

This townhome in Park Place, a Ryan Homes community, had the typical builder-grade finishes and wear that can turn off today’s buyers:

  • Flat, easily scuffed paint on walls and ceilings

  • Ceilings painted the same color as walls, creating a darker interior

  • Worn carpet in the upstairs bedrooms and basement

  • Mismatched flooring in the basement

  • Outdated, builder-grade light fixtures

  • General wear and tear throughout the home

The homeowner, Rachel, wanted to sell but didn’t want to leave money on the table. That’s where Home Renovation Heroes stepped in.

The Strategy: Renovate Now, Pay at Closing

We assessed the home and created a targeted renovation plan to help the home show like new—and sell for top dollar. Our projected result: $30,000 in increased resale value, with $15,000+ in profit remaining after renovation costs.

Here’s the full scope of work we’re handling:

  • Full home clean-out of personal belongings left behind

  • Professional wall prep (mudding, sanding, patching)

  • Ceiling paint upgrade to flat white, brightening the entire home

  • Walls and trim painted with Sherwin-Williams Emerald—a high-end, washable, scuff-resistant paint

  • New carpet installed upstairs

  • Luxury vinyl plank flooring installed in the basement

  • Light fixture upgrades to modern, attractive alternatives

  • General handyman repairs

  • Exterior power washing

  • Deep cleaning before listing the home on the market

The Result: A Home That Stands Out—and Sells for More

With these strategic updates, Rachel's home will stand out from competing listings in Park Place. It will feel brighter, cleaner, more modern—and worth significantly more.

Best of all? Rachel didn’t pay a dime upfront.
We covered 100% of the renovation costs and will only get paid when the home sells.

The walls were dinged up from the movers. we had to do so much mudding and sanding to make them look new.

Notice the yellow light and how it dark. Also what a boring fixture..wait till the after photo in the next blog post!

The space will feel so much brighter with getting rid of the off white ceiling and painting with a flat white ceiling paint. Makes a huge difference!
