A 127-unit, Class B garden-style renovation program focused on exterior CapEx repairs and value-add interior upgrades—
executed efficiently as units became vacant to support leasing operations while improving safety,
rent potential, and long-term asset value.
Project Overview
Disciplined execution for multifamily owners and operators
Summary
Vedomi Construction supported ownership with a renovation scope designed to improve unit appeal, address exterior repairs,
and enhance long-term durability. Interior work was completed as units became vacant, keeping operations intact while
steadily improving market readiness.
The program paired finish upgrades with system-level improvements—most notably replacing Zinsco electrical panels,
a known fire hazard. This upgrade improves property safety and reduces risk, supporting long-term value and lender confidence.
Zinsco Panel Replacement
Replacing Zinsco panels mitigates a recognized fire hazard and strengthens asset safety, insurability, and long-term value.
1/1 → 2/1 Conversions
Converting select one-bedroom layouts to two-bedroom configurations supports higher rent potential, increasing NOI and
overall property valuation.
