RENOVATIONS

Brownstone Boys

Many of us love HGTV, but when the rubber meets the road, Doing-It-Yourself can wind up surprisingly scary, lonely, and expensive. That’s where Barry steps in and shows you the way, combining his renovation experience as one of The Brownstone Boys with the real estate chops of the Be NYC team.

Take, for example, a couple who were recently looking to purchase a townhome in Brooklyn.  They knew they wanted to take on a project, but quickly found that they didn’t know where to begin. Since the renovation needs for each home are so different, it’s hard to even come up with a budget. Barry works on renovations of all kinds, and so he was able to help the couple estimate costs, understand the scope of work, and envision what is possible for each property.  

For some homes, adding an extension was a good option. For others, a floorplan redesign would optimize the space. Barry’s clients were able to move forward in their search with peace of mind, certain that they understood what would be needed for each unique property. 

And they knew that Barry had their back - thoughtfully counseling them on whether each home was a good buy, and if so, what sales price would leave room for the renovations they wanted.   Because Barry put in the extra effort to explore and explain what was needed upfront, the buyers’ experience was smooth sailing. 

At the end of the day, Barry helped his clients find the perfect project - a stately townhome with a sales price that left plenty of room for their DIY dreams. Those are results you can take to the bank - all made possible by Barry and the Be NYC team!
