Durante & Rich Real Estate focuses on property management to residential real estate - single family homes, townhomes, condos, and small multi-family units. Most of our clients have just one property. We have an owner that uses the same process for his investment properties so our program is well tested and efficient. We have been managing residential properties since 1998 and have a team (not just a one person) to help you.

"Do not give these people your business. Let my year spent in an unheated, dilapidated property, that was received dirty, with an inaccurate listing be a free lesson to you. Look elsewhere."

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Home additions can add significant value to a home by increasing its overall square footage and enhancing a home's functionality and appeal. Key additions such as extra bedrooms, bathrooms, or larger kitchens offer the highest returns on investment. Well-planned additions that seamlessly integrate with the existing structure and match the neighborhood's style can boost curb appeal and market value. However, the actual increase in value depends on the quality of the work, the types of additions, and the current real estate market conditions.

Whether or not new windows increase property taxes depends on where you live and by how much your upgrade increases your home’s value. Smaller projects likely won’t result in increased property taxes, but it’s always a good idea to err on the side of caution and check. Contact your local county appraisal department for the most accurate information about property taxes in your area. 

Yes, the age of your home can impact its value. However, age is just one of many factors that will have an effect. An older home may be perceived as needing more work and maintenance, but if you’ve kept up with repairs or done any renovations, this will increase its value. Buyers will also consider the size of the house, location, and how nearby homes are priced. Lastly, value also depends on whether it’s a buyer or seller’s market.

Yes, landscaping can boost your home value by up to 30%. A well-manicured lawn, upgraded walkways with lush plants, and thoughtful lighting all add instant charm and curb appeal. Just revamping your front walkway alone offers a 100% return on investment (ROI) while a pristine lawn can deliver an impressive 217% ROI. Fixing up your home with a few thoughtful design options is a smart, “groundbreaking” way to make your property stand out and reap the rewards when it’s time to sell.

Countertops play a significant role in determining your home's resale value. High-quality, stylish countertops can attract potential buyers and increase the overall appeal of your property. Desirable materials like granite, quartz, or marble often command a higher resale price. On the other hand, outdated or damaged countertops can deter buyers and lead to lower offers. Investing in attractive, durable countertops can be a smart move to boost your home's resale value.
