We believe in a future where real estate and design will work hand-in-hand to help people who own beautiful properties earn premium returns on their real estate portfolio. And so, we’ve developed a suite of design services capable of integrating into the real estate sales process. Kaage Company owner, Grace Kaage, also leads a team of real estate agents on Chicago’s North Shore and shares these services with her clients.
As an example, this Glencoe property is a true dream home. It has spectacular curb appeal, a spacious interior and less than two blocks from some of the the most attractive locations on the North Shore including local beaches, parks, train and town.
While this home is beautiful and turnkey, today’s real estate market has changed dramatically. Today, over 55% of homebuyers plan to renovate at least one room in the house. According to the Joint Center for Housing Centers of Harvard University (JCHS), home improvement project spending increased from $328 billion in 2019 to $472 billion in 2022, with an estimated 2024 spending of $485 billion.
At Kaage Company, we design homes for clients but we also create design concepts for future buyers to meet current market trends and clear demand. Our sellers are able to market these 3D experiential design concepts to future buyers who can then customize their homes as needed. Each design concept is custom-built in 3D to match the exact specifications of the home. From there, clients can switch out countertops, cabinet colors or even reconfigure layouts to suit their needs.
EXISTING SPACE:
DESIGN CONCEPT:
By removing a cabinet wall and installing a hidden door behind false cabinetry, buyers may reimagine the layout, fixtures and finishes in the heart of the home – the kitchen. Kaage Company design concepts are more than renderings, they’re pathways to construction and may include pricing, bids and connections to local builders ready and willing to execute on the design.
This property is currently under contract after receiving multiple offers. Contact us to learn more about how Kaage Company is innovating in the real estate space to help sellers earn premium returns on their real estate portfolio.
