Selling a Kingsbridge, Bronx Home: A Success Story with the Aaron & Geoff Team and Cathy Hobbs

When the Aaron & Geoff Team at Compass was tasked with selling 3430 Tibbett Avenue in Kingsbridge, Bronx, we knew that this beautiful tudor-style home had the potential to be a standout property in the market.

Built in the 1930s, the home boasts 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a finished basement, and formal dining room, as well as a separate garage and a double lot, giving the new owners one of the largest yards in the whole neighborhood. However, we also knew that in order to make this property stand out in a competitive market, we needed to showcase it in a way that highlighted its unique features and charm.

That’s why we decided to bring in Cathy Hobbs, renowned interior designer and home stager, to give this house the extra wow-factor it needed to stand out. As Cathy explains, “At Cathy Hobbs Design Recipes we aren’t stagers in a traditional sense, but interior designers and real estate marketing experts. So we make sure to approach this listing with a curated marketing approach in mind.”

Working with Cathy, we were able to showcase the home in a way that highlighted its original details and charm while also giving it a modern, design-forward feel. Cathy says, “True to the history, rich details and predicted buyer, we focused on a design forward, modern, approach that we would be fresh, while still preserving the properties original details.”

The results of our collaboration with Cathy speak for themselves – in just 8 days, we received 11 offers on the property, ultimately selling it for $100,000 over the asking price. This is a prime example of how, by working with a team of experts and utilizing a curated marketing approach, we were able to showcase this property in a way that set it apart from the competition and ultimately led to a successful sale.

At the Aaron & Geoff Team at Compass, we are dedicated to achieving the best possible results for our clients and this case is a testament to that. We’re thrilled to have been a part of this successful sale and look forward to continuing to provide our clients with the highest level of service and expertise.
