Renovate. Sell. Start Fresh — With Selling Houses Australia 200th Renovation Special

In Partnership with Barra Realty: Your Eastern Suburbs Sales Specialists

Are you ready for a fresh start?

Barra Realty has teamed up with Selling Houses Australia to offer a rare opportunity for homeowners in Sydney who need a renovation and a new outlook. As the show prepares to film its 200th renovation, we’ve been invited to help find a Sydney homeowner who truly needs this transformation.

If you’ve had a tough year and feel ready to turn things around, this is your chance.

The Selling Houses Australia team will deliver:

• Expert renovation support
   
• National exposure
   
• The potential to significantly increase your property’s value
   

This isn’t just another renovation—it’s a game-changer. If you meet the following criteria, we want to hear from you:

• You want to sell your home but need a renovation to maximise value
   
• You can contribute to a renovation budget (eligibility assessed individually)
   
• Your home is in Sydney metro (within one hour of the CBD)
   
• Your house has not been listed yet (though listed homes also considered)
   
• You’ve experienced a significant life event in the past year—whether it’s illness, loss, or another major change
   

This is your chance to receive expert help—without construction delays or excessive costs. The Selling Houses Australia team delivers renovations that add real value to homes—and lives.

Ready to sell? We’re here to help.

As licensed real estate agents, Barra Realty knows how to:

• Present your home at its best
   
• Maximise buyer appeal
   
• Secure top sale prices
   

We provide a free market appraisal, strategic sales advice, and insights on how the Selling Houses Australia team could elevate your home to stand out in today’s market.

In a time when construction costs are high and supply chains are tight, this is a unique opportunity to work with one of Australia’s most trusted renovation shows—and a sales team that delivers.

Renovations featured on Selling Houses Australia have consistently led to significant increases in sale prices. For instance:

• Castle Hill, NSW: Pre-renovation interest was minimal. Post-makeover, the property sold for $2.5 million—a major leap attributed to layout optimization and cosmetic upgrades.
   
• Camden, NSW: Sold for $1.85 million, well above the pre-renovation market estimate, after staging and smart space enhancements.
   
• Annandale, NSW: Despite not selling on the show, the property demonstrated the potential for increased value through strategic renovation that set the stage for eventual higher price.
   

These examples highlight the tangible benefits of participating in the show, with many homeowners experiencing substantial financial gains post-renovation.

This opportunity offers homeowners the chance to boost their property’s value, reduce selling stress, and achieve a faster sale through expert renovations and national exposure. While there are clear financial and emotional benefits, it’s important to consider the required budget contribution, time commitment, and broader market conditions. 

If this sounds like you, don’t wait.
