"Higher-end" renovating in Worcester (near Clark),
Hi all - I typically buy and renovate in Cambridge and Somerville where rents are sky high but so are purchase prices. As such, I try to create value by renovating the kitchens and baths as well as re working the interior to maximize bedroom count.
That being said, Worcester is a different animal. Some of these old buildings are huge and rearranging interior layout to maximize bedroom count is doable. I typically put in nice(ish) cabinets, granite countertops and stainless steel applicances. Will I get paid for that in Worcester? What does a beautiful 4 bed within a quarter mile of Clark (south of Main Street) go for. To give you a sense of quality, below are some pics of kitchens and baths of recent remodels. Will I get paid for these? Thoughts?
