In today's challenging market, pre-sale renovation can mean the difference between a standard sale price and winning the auction hammer jackpot.
Most homeowners sell their property "as is" and miss the opportunity to maximise the resale potential. A standard property is bought using logic and numbers. A beautiful, shiny property evokes buyer emotions that go beyond logic, leading to higher offers and quicker sales.
Here at The Renovation Team, our founder James will work with you to build a cost effective renovation package to maximise your property sale potential and to trigger strong "buy" emotions.

Get Multiple Quotes – Compare estimates from reputable renovation companies to ensure competitive pricing.
Plan for Hidden Costs – Allocate at least 10-20% contingency for unforeseen expenses like structural or dampness issues..
Choose Cost-Effective Materials – Opt for high-quality, durable materials that fit your budget without compromising on longevity.

Small Renovations or Standalone Bathroom Remodels – If only one bathroom is being renovated and a second bathroom is available with easy access, you can likely remain at home with minimal disruption.
Kitchen Renovations – The kitchen is a key functional space, and its renovation will disrupt the household significantly. With constant activity, noise, and limited access to cooking facilities, it’s best to arrange temporary accommodation for a smoother and safer process.
Major Renovations – If the project affects multiple rooms, requires structural work, or involves kitchen and bathroom upgrades, vacating the property is highly recommended. Dust, construction materials, and ongoing work create an environment that is not ideal for living and can pose health and safety risks. Additionally, a lack of functional spaces such as a kitchen or bathroom can make daily life difficult.
Living in a renovation zone can be inconvenient due to noise, dust, and restricted access to essential spaces. For personalised advice on your renovation, consult The Renovation Team to determine the best approach for your situation.

Older Auckland homes often reveal hidden issues during renovation, such as:
• Rotten timber or flooring
• Outdated or unsafe electrical wiring
• Leaking pipes or damaged plumbing
These problems can increase your total renovation cost by 5–20%, depending on the severity. A professional renovation company will notify you straight away, explain the issue, provide cost-effective options, and keep you informed at every step. This is where having a contingency budget helps protect your overall spend.
