A 1970s-original Encino townhome — dark wood kitchen, tired finishes — bought right in July 2020 at $525,000 with Gary on the buyer side. The refresh touched every room: white quartz kitchen, updated baths, new flooring and paint. Five months later it resold for $660,000, a 26% gross premium, closing before year-end. The same playbook that works on hillside estates works at the entry price point too.
