Our sellers told us they would happily leave a little money on the table for a convenient sale.

After more than a decade in their 1930s Magnolia home, the place where they raised their daughter, they were empty nesters ready for the next chapter. Two busy professionals whose biggest ask was simple: make this convenient.

So we took the entire project off their plate. Cleaning, painting, staging, inspection, a sewer repair, all of it. They made the decisions. We handled everything else. In their words, we did “only the necessary things to get the house sold, not a bunch of nonsense check-the-box stuff.”

We listed on a Thursday. By Friday we had a strong offer from well-qualified buyers, exactly the easy sale they wanted. They would have taken it.

Instead, we kept the weekend open houses on the calendar and called every agent who had shown the home. By Saturday night, two buyers were competing. The house sold for $1,672,500. That is $87,500 over list, and far more than the easy Friday offer.

They asked for convenience. They got convenience and top dollar. Both, not either.

Thinking about selling but dreading the chaos? That part is our job. Send us a message to start the journey!

We’ve seen Edmonds and Seattle homeowners spend $80K-$100k on a kitchen remodel and wonder why they didn’t make it back at closing.

Meanwhile, the house down the street spent $400 on a coat of paint, spruced up their yard, and walked away with more.

We’ve walked through homes where the owner gutted the bathroom before listing and barely broke even.

Then we’ve seen a $1,500 garage door swap change a buyer’s entire first impression before they got to the front door.

The upgrades that move the needle are usually the ones that remove objections.

A well-maintained yard says “this home is cared for.”

Fresh neutral paint makes every room feel like a clean slate - fresh, bright, and bigger.

When I showed this house to Will for the first time, he told me I was getting desperate. We had been looking for our next house and he knows how much I love charm character and details that old homes have that quite frankly this house from the 80s was lacking. But it was in the perfect location, an amazing size and I could see the vision of where I could take it. Although we always have a running list of projects that we want to do, we have come a long way in five years!

Homes have always been more than real estate to us.

Over the years, clients started asking us questions that went beyond buying and selling:

“What paint color would you choose?”
“How would you update this room?”
“Can you help me make this space feel more finished?”

Somewhere along the way, what started as real estate slowly grew into something more.

So we’re excited to officially expand Aufhammer Homes into three parts:

Interiors. Details. Lifestyle.

Thoughtful homes. Thoughtful living.

This next chapter will include more design, gathering inspiration, renovations, styling, hosting, and everyday moments that make a house feel personal and lived in.

Real estate will always be at the heart of what we do. This simply feels like a natural extension of it.

We’re so excited you’re here. 🤍

Over the years, real estate slowly turned into something more.

Clients started asking:

“Can you help me pick paint colors?”
“What light fixture would you put here?”
“How would you make this room feel finished?”

And honestly… we loved that part just as much.

So we’re officially expanding Aufhammer Homes into interiors, details, and lifestyle.

Thoughtful homes. Thoughtful living.

Same account. Same heart. Just more layers.

More to come this week so stay tuned!
