A True Detroit Home Builders Story

When we first met William, he was done.
A long-time investor, he had grown tired of the landlord grind ā the constant calls, the property damage, the stress. He was ready to cash out, but there was one big problem: his last rental property was in no shape to sell.
Weāre talking about a house that had been through it.
š Filthy rooms covered in grime
š Rodent droppings scattered throughout
š Overgrown trees swallowing the yard ā one on the corner and one dangerously close to the side of the house
š A garage on life support and a house that screamed neglectĀ from every angle
It needed more than a clean-up.It needed a transformation.
Thatās when William called Detroit Home Builders.
š ļø The Turnaround Begins
From the moment we stepped onto the property, we saw the potential. Our team created a full rehab strategy ā not a patch job ā but a full-scale revivalĀ that would breathe life back into the home and give it a second chance with a new owner.
Hereās what we did:
ā Cleared the trees and restored curb appeal
ā Deep-cleaned and sanitized every inch
ā Rebuilt and revived the garage
ā Brand new kitchen with modern finishes
ā Full bathroom makeover
ā Fresh paint throughout
ā New carpet and flooring
ā And top-to-bottom improvements ā inside and out
Everything was redone except the roofĀ ā and even that looked better once the rest of the house was shining.
š¬ Williamās Reaction?
āYou all exceeded my expectations. I never thought this house could look this good.ā
His words ā not ours.
The best part?
William successfully sold the home to a new homeowner who absolutely loves it. He didnāt just make a sale ā he got top dollar, and he walked away with peace of mind, knowing that his final property didnāt go out with a whimper ā it went out a winner.
š Real Results. Real Detroit.
