装修改建案例分析：如何通过改建，让户型不好的湾区小黑屋价格翻番？短短十几个月，房屋价格直接翻倍。这是怎么做到的？

I was staying at home during the epidemic. I was lying on the sofa after dinner and brushing Redfin as usual. When I saw the transaction history of this house, I was shocked.

What? In November 2018 (at or near the high point), it bought 880,000, and now it has sold nearly 1.64 million, which has almost doubled in ten months! What did the owner do?

Can you give Boss Q a copy of this kind of pie? Strong curiosity was aroused, and Boss Q got up and frantically pulled out all kinds of information to study it.

Looking for photos, looking at maps, checking information, and also using our housekeeping skills, infer what the former owner has done, and sort out the main points for everyone to watch (xian) and (mu) them.

 

1. Archaeologist Possession - Exploring the History of the House

Come, let's take a look at the transaction records on redfin:

 

Bought in November 2018, 880,000, and sold 1,637,500 in April 2020! 17 months before and after, plus more than a month for the sale, almost 18 and a half months. Focus on it, it was sold in April and May, when it was still in lockdown.

Is there such a good thing? appreciation? Not like ah.

In November 2018, house prices were near the high point. So what did the former owner do to make later buyers willing to pay almost double the price?

 

2. Operation Sherlock Holmes - cracking the renovation strategy

• Crack clue 1: data comparison before and after the change

Boss Q first Googled its original area, and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and then grabbed the current number of bedrooms, rooms, and area from Redfin. The comparison is as follows:

              Before renovation After renovation

Bedroom	3	3
Bathroom	1	2
SQFT	980	1,534

 

The house was originally a 980sf small three-bedroom and one-bathroom. After the renovation, the area was increased by 554sf and a bathroom was added.

The price has increased so much, in addition to adding a bathroom, there must be other changes.

So, let's see what is added and where is it added?

• Crack clue 2: compare maps, look at photos and virtual tour

Here is the original roof plan taken from Google Maps:

 

 

Here is the current roof plan:

Comparing the two, we can see that there is an addition near the door, and a part of it protrudes toward the street; a large part is added to the backyard as a whole, which can be seen from the change in the roof, the new roof is different from the original one. Some roofs have a thin line between them, which should be the height difference.

Then, combined with the photos on Redfin and the virtual tour, Boss Q preliminarily guessed the added part and what room was placed in the added part, as shown below.

 

 

In the third step, according to the roof plane and the photos of the same small black house nearby, Boss Q speculates that the original floor plan is as follows, a typical small black house plane:

 

 

Based on the above information, after carefully studying the photos and the virtual tour on Redfin, Boss Q speculates that the current floor plan is as follows:

 

 

Summary of changes:

 

 

With such a change, the small black house will become a light luxury small mansion in seconds!

 

3. Look at my seventy-two changes - comparison before and after renovation

这。。。。。。真的还是原来哪个厅吗？不敢相信！看这个窗，加得太赞了！Vaulted ceiling、三角形的高大窗户更是活跃了空间、驱散了沉闷啊！

眼前一亮有木有？厨房不大，但是够用，原来去side yard的门和一扇小窗户拿掉，做了一扇大窗户，大气不少；厨房加天窗；餐厅也加了一扇窗户。自然采光max，通透感max！

 

新加的部分：主卧+family room+deck

Family room连接着主卧和deck，私密而自成一体。

这是谁？我已经不认识它了！灰姑娘秒变白富美！看这斜屋顶造型、这大窗户、这色彩，好像植发、修骨、填充苹果肌、开眼角、嫩肤美白，凤姐秒变范冰冰，深度do了之后果然是不一样的惹！

 

外观–后院

 

Before：

 

 

湾区小黑屋的既视感：灰土土的墙面、光秃秃没有打理的草地。小黑屋们一直让我好奇的一点是，好像它们经常是没有门直接到后院的，以至于后院像一个与房子隔绝的孤岛。

 

浪费这么大一块地，在湾区这种寸土寸金的地方，你的心真的不会痛吗？！

改天换地的赶脚有木有？！主卧区的family+deck联通了后院，整个后院马上被盘活！加上简单的landscape，后院引来了新的机遇和生机！

综上，Layout的扩大和改善，结合新屋顶做的vaulted ceiling，房子外观的脱胎换骨，三管齐下，将原本小黑屋沉闷、黑暗的空间观感一扫而空、马上有了轻奢感！
