Transformation Tuesday Layout (2)

This week’s featured transformation takes us to 8317 Northwest 85th Street in Oklahoma City, where this spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home underwent a full renovation to become turnkey-ready for a new resident. Built in 1979 and offering over 2,000 square feet of living space, this property is ideal for families or long-term renters looking for comfort and room to grow. The home’s classic layout, two-car garage, and neighborhood setting made it a strong foundation for a renovation that brings modern appeal to timeless structure.

With its solid bones and great location, our rehab team focused on both updating the home cosmetically and addressing key mechanical systems to ensure long-term performance. The result? A fresh, fully renovated home that’s professionally managed and move-in ready—ideal for passive investors looking for dependable, high-quality rental property in a strong market.
