Right out of the gate, employees at Shamrock Turnkey Services are up and running assisting clients all over the Eastern Shore. Serving clients who want to sell their homes is a major component of the duties of the STS team in addition to working with clients who want small renovations or have large, time consuming projects in mind. This particular client wanted to sell his property-- but wanted the biggest bang for his buck, so he enlisted the STS team to get the property ready to sell.

Before the renovation began, our experienced STS team evaluated the property to determine necessary projects to get it sold quickly. "At first glance, we knew we had a lot of work that needed to be completed," said Roamie Richards, with STS. "Our task list was long, but we have the right contractors to do the jobs, so I knew we could get it done quickly." After the client approved the task list, contractors were hired and the work began!

The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom property needed a lot of work. All of the plumbing had to be reworked, cabinets & flooring had to be replaced, walls had to be repaired and painted, ceilings painted, and the outside of the property needed a good pressure washing among other things. 

The STS team coordinated and scheduled all contractors to complete the projects at hand in a timely matter. 

Selecting finishes can be a challenging task when you are in a time crunch and want a good end product, but with an inexpensive price tag. The STS decorator worked with the client to select finishes that would sell the home the quickest! Stylish, low maintenance LVT flooring that is inexpensive but looks top dollar was installed throughout the home. Additionally, a fresh light neutral paint color was selected.

Renovated and ready, 29919 St. Helen Street is on the market for $189,500! Don't blink-- This one will sell fast!

First impressions are everything – at least when it comes to selling your home. The National Association of Realtors found that 63 percent of homebuyers will drive by properties they see online before taking a look inside and contacting a realtor. The exterior of the home is the first thing homebuyer's will see, and yours needs to be in tip top shape! When the front entry, yard, driveway and sidewalk look fantastic, buyers will want to come inside to see the rest! Read through to find out how to make a first impression.

1. Not all curb appeal can be seen from the sidewalk. A critical part of selling your home in Baldwin County or Mobile County is getting enticing photos posted online-- After all, 88 percent of homebuyers start the home buying process online. "Professional photos are an integral part of our strategic marketing plan for many properties we sell," said to Brittany Chandler, Marketing Coordinator at Shamrock Properties in Daphne, Alabama.  "Many times, these photos are what catch the eye of the buyer or real estate agent." Most importantly, try to de-clutter prior to taking photos. Even though you may love your kitchen filled with photos and memories, a potential buyer doesn't want to see where you have been on all of your vacations.

2. A budget friendly tip is to pressure wash dirty sidewalks, oil-stained driveways, siding and deck, as well as any faded walkways. This is an extremely cost-efficient way to increase the curb appeal of your home quickly! If you don't own a pressure washer, call us for information on our preferred pressure washing vendors to get it done quickly and professionally! We all know with this South Alabama Gulf Coast weather, the exterior of our homes can get grungy quickly!

3. The third tip is to always add some color! According to local Daphne, Alabama landscapers, there are several types of annual plants that are always in bloom, no matter what time of year. Add some potted plants on the porch, spruce up your window boxes & front beds, and lay some fresh pine straw which will also add color. 

I know what you’re thinking. What in the world does a lawnmower have to do with growing a real estate company in Daphne, Alabama. Many of you don’t know the story from the beginning, so I’ll take some time to fill you in…

Shamrock Properties was quickly growing out of our office space in Daphne. We wanted to purchase a space in Baldwin County within the Spanish Fort, Daphne and Fairhope areas known as the Eastern Shore. However, this is no easy task in a market that is as competitive as our real estate market is in Baldwin County.

We searched high and low for a new office space for Shamrock Properties across the Eastern Shore. Finally, we thought we found the jackpot renovation project. An older house for sale in a prime location on Highway 181 and County Road 64 right smack dab in the middle of Daphne, Alabama. Dreamy, right?

After knocking on the door and talking with the owner of the property, come to find out the house wasn’t for sale and the lawnmower on the side of the house WAS for sale. Utilizing his stellar negotiation skills from his lifetime career in real estate in South Alabama, David was able to purchase the home from the owner (including the lot next door) and find the owner a new home down the road in Fairhope.

This home needed an overhaul in order to be turned into a real estate office. We wanted to maintain the character and cottage feel that the property had while restoring it with traditional southern charm. The renovation took about 3 months and was contracted out by Shamrock Properties‘ preferred contractors. The home was gutted down to the studs in many areas in order for it to be renovated properly and the size and locations of each room were thought about in great depth. (even the light switch placement!)

After 3 months time, the renovation was complete and the former little Shamrock Properties office became a giant office for only 3 people with lots of room for expansion to accommodate more agents and managers. As we have been steadily growing, our new offices have been filling up with agents and staff members which we consider family. With the right people in place, Shamrock Properties holds the foundation for solid growth and progress, whether the Baldwin and Mobile County markets are quiet or booming.
