It's Justin Cruz from Remax Voyage with the first update on the Bronx Homes for sale and the 203K Dream. Today I met the contractor at the property and started working on the plan to renovate the building. It went well and we decided to start on the top 2 apartments and the roof. Right now he is looking into the proper permits and we should be able to start monday
This will be the basic floorplan for the apartments.
We will be renovating kitchens, baths, flooring, sheetrock, plumbing, windows and painting.
The estimated time to complete the first 2 apartments is 2-3 weeks. Then we will be requesting the first renovation draw.
While all these renovations are going on I will need to balance the Big Baby and my real estate business. So I will be hiring a project manager to oversee the Big Baby and I will be able to stay focused on my clients.
I am working with many sellers who have hired me to sell there homes and that is what I do "I sell homes and condos in the Bronx".

Bronx homes and Bronx condos for sale by Justin Cruz at Remax Voyage. All areas are different and some areas different renovations and basic maintenance attract higher returns, but I work in the Bronx and this is what gives you the most bang for your buck over here.
First of all if you cant do the work yourself then you will need a good contractor in the Bronx to work on your home. Sure you can look in the yellow pages, but better than that call me! I have contractors who I work with for many years that offer the best quality work at very reasonable prices and these are people who are local and have either done work for me or someone I know.
Second is the renovation for your own personal taste or leisure because that can also change your bang for buck. Not everybody may like your renovation and therefore not see it as an improvement. Some things are also just basic maintenance and normal upkeep of a home, a new roof and new boiler. You should have a roof that doesnt leak and a boiler that works. People expect this already, but if you dont have this in working order then your offers will be less.
You should always start on the outside (curb appeal), a quick powerwash, brick pointing, mow the grass, fix that broken mailbox, move those ugly garbage cans, oil that squeaky front door. here is where you see the biggest return, FRESH PAINT. Ahhh there is nothing like walking into a freshly painted home with nice warm colors.
A nice updated kitchen is a great idea, but you dont have to go crazy with the high end appliances or granite. Buyers love a new spiced up kitchen with plenty of storage so try to get the most out of the space you have and use tasteful color and material combinations.
Energy saving ideas rank high on the list, tankless water heaters are nice and heated ceiling fans can provide supplemental heat to a cold room.
This is the Bronx and if you have a home or condo in the Bronx before you do anything to your home call Justin Cruz at Remax Voyage.
