Did you know our team at MHR Designs has more than 60 combined years of real estate experience, specifically in DFW? 

We have been buying and selling houses for decades in this area, and after going through our own home remodeling process in 2020… we realized we were really good at renovations!

Our extensive real estate knowledge made everything from the initial designs to the project management, budgeting, and creative problem-solving better. Our skills as real estate agents and investors helped us stand out in the home renovation industry. 

In this post, we’re digging deeper into the 3 main reasons our real estate experience improves your renovation experience and makes us uniquely suited for this job! 

As Dallas real estate investors, we know what sells

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say we’ve seen inside more homes in DFW than almost anyone. 

Over the past 30 years, we’ve seen first-hand what buyers like, what decreases the value of a home, and how to make sure the money spent on updates results in better marketability (aka fewer days on the market!). 

Most home renovation teams focus on design: what looks good, what’s trending, and what’s popular at the moment. And don’t get it wrong, design matters!

But what matters even more is how the choices you make when upgrading a room or building an addition onto your home is the value it brings. You want a renovation to add value to your experience while you’re living in the home and increase the value of your home when the time comes to sell. 

Our market-smart guidance means you don’t have to worry about making choices that don’t hold up in the long run. 

We can guide you toward options that improve the function of your home and that we know buyers will love 2 months, 2 years, or 2 decades in the future! 

We proactively solve problems 

We can’t see into the future, but it may feel like we can! 

As Dallas real estate investors and agents, we can predict issues with room layouts, footprints of an addition, and design choices before they become a problem. 

Because we’ve been part of the buying and/or selling transaction for hundreds of homes, we know how function (or lack thereof) can affect day-to-day living. We’ve bought homes people couldn’t sell because of weird layouts, and we’ve sold homes that only lasted a few days on the market because of a kitchen with perfectly placed appliances and storage. 

Our experience with homes means we can help you avoid a number of design choices that most people wouldn’t even realize were an issue until after they were living with them.

Those marble countertops that look gorgeous on Pinterest? Aren’t always so much fun to constantly keep clean. 

That grasscloth wallpaper you have your eye on? Won’t hold up to the little hands of toddlers who walk past it and touch it 100 times a day. 

Don’t put your hard-earned money and valuable time into a renovation project that will only end up creating more problems once it’s done. 

We can foresee these issues and help you make choices that make life easier and more comfortable instead! 

Clear communication is our standard

As real estate investors, we know that clarity is essential to closing good deals. When a homeowner is confused, the process slows down, which costs us money as investors. 

In our role as real estate agents, we’ve learned the importance of clearly mapping out a process and communicating it well to our clients before anything happens. 

When you work with us on your renovation, you benefit from our commitment to clear, consistent communication.

We’re used to doing many things at the same time:

• Scheduling and meeting multiple closing dates
• Ensuring paperwork is signed and delivered
• Managing budgets on simultaneous projects
• Keeping our clients informed of everything that’s happening 

What does that mean for you when you’re renovating your home? Crystal clear communication and leadership from two real estate pros who have decades of experience meeting deadlines and managing budgets. 

Unfortunately, many creative designers don’t prioritize communication or have a proven system or framework to follow. This can result in missed deadlines, out-of-budget expenses, and longer renovation timelines. 

When you work with MHR Designs, you’ll always know exactly what’s happening, when it’s happening, and how much it costs. 

Strong communication significantly reduces the stress and overwhelm often associated with a renovation project. But it doesn’t have to be like that!
