We recently acted as Project Managers for an overhaul of an original 50's home in Studio City, CA. And we mean original!! Pink & green bathroom tiles, original appliances, original hardwood floors covered by carpet that was falling apart! Everything was updated from the front curb to the back fence.
The original owner was the late Al Viola, premier jazz guitarist who played with Frank Sinatra for many years. His guitar can be heard on New York, New York, My Way and many, many other Frank Sinatra hits. His mandolin playing is featured on the theme song from The Godfather.
This was truly a labor of love for us. Our clients, the son and daughter-in-law of Al were so wonderful to work for. We recently rehabbed their townhome in Simi Valley, CA too, which is currently for sale (pictures and details to be posted soon) They are moving up to a larger home. http://www.dilbeck.com/v2pages/home_search/residential.cfm?mln=90020529&kind=Residential (Realtor's pictures).
Our team members were awesome to work with; they worked quickly in a tight time frame with quality results.
All of our hard work paid off - the home sold in 4 days for full asking price ($100,000 more than what the Realtor originally was planning on listing if for).
Needless to say, both the owner and the Realtor were thrilled.
Here are a few before and after pictures - more will follow soon! (That's Al in the artwork - we just couldn't leave him out!)
