Reno·Vision · A working demonstration

Dated homes. Here’s how we market them.

45 Dawn Road is a real listing of ours, marketed with the full Reno·Vision kit. Walk through exactly what buyers see — the concept, the numbers, and the page every sign call lands on — then see the same system on more homes below.

The same house

Before, and after.

The home as-is

A solid home that reads as a project.

45 Dawn Roadis exactly the kind of home most buyers scroll past — good bones behind dated finishes. Listed as-is, it draws a small pool bidding defensively. The kit’s job is to change what buyers picture when they see it.

This 1960 ranch has been kept up mechanically (roof, windows, heating, electrical, some kitchen counters) but the interior finishes and yard/exterior details remain original to dated, leaving clear upside for a full cosmetic renovation. Curb appeal is decent (fresh lawn, shutters) but the rear yard and outbuildings look cluttered and unfinished, and no bath or flooring photos were provided, suggesting those areas are likely the weakest link.

Drag the handle to compare. Each “concept” side is an AI-generated rendering — it carries a permanent “AI-generated concept rendering” label burned across the image, and is shown beside the real listing photo it was built from. Furnishings shown are virtual staging.

The honest budget

What the work actually costs.

FHA 203(k) Standard$49,229 – $96,675
  • Minor kitchen remodel (reface/refresh)$20,000 – $35,000
  • Bathroom refresh (fixtures/tile/vanity)$12,000 – $25,000
  • Whole-house interior paint$4,000 – $12,000
  • 200-amp electrical panel$2,500 – $5,800

A room-by-room construction estimate in real Long Island ranges — not a contractor bid and not a financing offer. It gives a buyer a concrete number to plan against instead of a blank “needs work.”

What buyers receive

One page carries the whole vision.

The concept, the budget, and the financing education live together on a private microsite. Every yard-sign call, every open-house visitor, and every phone scan of the flyer’s QR code lands on the exact page below.

Why it works

Two levers, working together.

01

A bigger pool

Showing the finished home instead of a project gives move-in buyers a reason to stop. A wider pool means real competition rather than one defensive offer.

02

Stronger offers

Buyers learn that one renovation loan can fold the purchase and the work into a single mortgage. Program terms come from the lender of their choice — our part is making sure buyers know the path exists.
