If you go all-in on a high-end remodel, we’re looking at a top-end After Repair Value (ARV) of $248,000. Because this house is 1,783 sqft—significantly larger than the 1,407 sqft neighborhood average—you have a massive advantage when it comes to total exit value.
| Value Driver | Estimated Figure |
| :--- | :--- |
| Max Market Value | $248,000 |
| Price per Sqft | ~$140 |
| Potential Rent | $2,450/mo |
| Purchase Price | $104,900 |
To hit that $248k ceiling, you’ll need to focus on a few non-negotiables. First, the listing shows no cooling. In San Antonio, central HVAC is a must-have to attract top-dollar buyers or high-end renters.
With nearly $143,000 in "spread" between the list price and the max ARV, you have plenty of room for a high-quality renovation. Focus on the kitchen and the primary suite; with 1,783 square feet to play with, you can create a layout that feels much more premium than the smaller 2-bedroom comps nearby.
Upgrade HVAC: Install central air immediately.
Modern Kitchen: Use stone counters and stainless appliances to hit that $140/sqft mark.
Capitalize on Size: Use the extra square footage to create a clear "master retreat."
