“Should I fix things up first, or sell as-is?” 🤔

Owners of older homes ask me this all the time. For this San Pedro family, a complete remodel was the right answer.

Swipe to see the before and after of 1561 W. 7th Street, a single-family home we fully transformed for our sellers 👉

✨ New kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances
✨ New bathroom
✨ New flooring throughout
✨ New windows
✨ Fresh paint inside and out
✨ New garage door
✨ New driveway and walkway

The result is a bright, move-in-ready home with great curb appeal that buyers can fall in love with from the street to the kitchen. Through our Concierge Service, we handled the remodel from start to finish, so our sellers didn’t have to manage contractors or timelines.

Not every home needs a full remodel. Sometimes selling as-is is the smarter move. The right choice depends on your home’s condition, your budget and your goals.

Should you remodel your kitchen before you sell? 🏡

For many buyers, the kitchen is what makes or breaks a home. An outdated one can mean fewer showings and lower offers.

Right now we’re remodeling the kitchen in an inherited single-family home in San Pedro. We’re choosing modern finishes that buyers love:

✨ Clean, neutral cabinets
✨ Quartz countertops
✨ A simple, timeless backsplash
✨ Updated hardware
✨ Bright new lighting

The goal isn’t anyone’s personal dream kitchen. It’s a kitchen buyers walk into and picture themselves cooking in. That brings in more buyers and stronger offers.

Through our Concierge Service, we handle the remodel from start to finish, so our sellers don’t have to manage contractors or timelines.

🏡 SHOULD YOU RENOVATE AN INHERITED HOME BEFORE SELLING IN SAN PEDRO?

It depends on the home. Sometimes a few cosmetic updates are enough. For some homes, though, a full renovation can bring a much higher sale price and attract more buyers.

We’re working with a family who inherited their parents’ single-family home in San Pedro’s Taper area. The house was well loved but dated, so together we decided a complete renovation made the most sense before listing. The family is using our Concierge Service, which lets us handle the remodel for them. Here’s what’s underway:

✔️ Brand-new kitchen
✔️ Two fully remodeled bathrooms
✔️ New flooring throughout
✔️ Scraped ceilings for a clean, modern look
✔️ Fresh interior paint
✔️ New lighting throughout

With our Concierge Service, we coordinate the contractors, timelines and details from start to finish. The family doesn’t have to manage the remodel on top of everything else that comes with settling a parent’s estate.

When it’s finished, this home will be move-in ready. That appeals to today’s buyers, who often don’t have the time or budget to take on a big remodel themselves.

Not every inherited home needs a full remodel. The right choice depends on the home’s condition, the neighborhood, the budget and the family’s goals. Sometimes selling as-is is the smarter move.

If you’ve inherited a home in San Pedro and aren’t sure where to start, I’m happy to walk you through your options.

🏡 SOLD! Congratulations to our Move-Up Buyers! 🔑

1458 243rd Street, Harbor City | 3 Bed | 2 Bath | Single Family Home

This story started at an open house! Our buyers met Karen Anderson at one of her listings, hit it off, and decided to start their home search with the Prestige Team. 🤝

They had outgrown their starter home in Long Beach and needed more space in a better location. After touring homes with Karen in San Pedro and the South Bay, they found this charming Harbor City home and fell in love!

✨ Buy first, sell second. Most move-up buyers have to sell before they can buy, and that makes their offers weaker. We partner with companies that help homeowners use the equity in their current home to buy the next one first. Our buyers made a strong offer with no home-sale contingency.

🔍 Looking past the surface. The home was a flip. It looked beautiful, but inspections turned up some major infrastructure issues. We negotiated a $19,000 price reduction plus a brand-new sewer line paid for by the seller, so our clients moved in with peace of mind.

📦 What’s next: Now that escrow has closed, we’re getting their Long Beach starter home ready for the market. Stay tuned!

Thinking about moving up but worried about having to sell first? Let’s talk about how you can buy your next home first. 📲 DM us or call today!

Bigger Home, One Smooth Move: Buy First, Sell Second in San Pedro 🏡

Congratulations to our client on her new townhouse in The Gardens in San Pedro!

She loved living in San Pedro but had outgrown her condo and was ready for more space. Like many homeowners, she worried about how to buy and sell at the same time. Would she have to sell first and scramble to find a rental? Could she make an offer without her condo already sold?

It can feel complicated, but it doesn’t have to be. We helped her build a plan to buy the larger townhouse first, settle in, and sell her condo after she moved out. That meant one move instead of two, no rush to get out, and a vacant, show-ready condo that was easier to prepare and present to buyers.

We guide our clients through every step, from timing and financing options to preparing the home for sale and coordinating both closings.

Thinking about moving up to a larger home in San Pedro, Rancho Palos Verdes, or the South Bay? Let’s talk about whether buying first could work for you.

📞 Call or message us today.

Looking for a realtor in the South Bay who can find homes before they hit the market? 🏡🔑

We just helped our buyer purchase a newer-construction townhouse in Lomita that was never listed online.

Richard was looking for the best agent in the South Bay to help him find townhomes for sale with newer construction and a good location. I met Richard at one of our listings in Lomita that was not quote what he was looking for. Richard wanted a newer construction townhouse in a safe neighborhood in the South Bay. Instead of waiting for the right home to hit the market, I reached out to my local agent network and found an off-market townhome in Lomita that checked every box.

✅ Off-market home found fast
✅ Offer accepted in under 2 days
✅ Repairs negotiated for my buyer
✅ Smooth 30-day escrow

💬 “I’ve experienced over a dozen real-estate transactions and Leigh made this the smoothest, most efficient and uneventful experience I could have imagined.” – Richard

If you’re searching for:
🔎 The best real estate agent in the South Bay
🔎 A buyer’s agent in the South Bay
🔎 Townhomes for sale in Lomita, Torrance, San Pedro or Rancho Palos Verdes
🔎 Off-market homes in the South Bay
🔎 A realtor who knows the local market..let’s talk! DM me 📩
