2020 has changed how we do everything, including selling homes.The housing and real estate experts at <a href="https://www.renovationsells.com/franchise?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=renovation-sells-talks-selling-homes-during-a-pandemic-with-the-chicago-tribune-2714474" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Renovation Sells</a> are noticing new trends taking over the marketplace during COVID-19, which they detailed in <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/real-estate/ct-re-home-upgrades-selling-covid-19-pandemic-20201013-xwz22ufmr5dvndzzohdp33qfne-story.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=renovation-sells-talks-selling-homes-during-a-pandemic-with-the-chicago-tribune-2714474" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">a recent article in the Chicago Tribune</a>.Prior to 2020, many homeowners wanted large open floor plans that helped with entertaining guests. Now, many are trading that in for cozier homes with extra rooms.&nbsp;The reason? More space for at-home offices. With such high demand for this type of home, sellers are inclined now more than ever to make renovations to appeal to the new type of buyers.&nbsp;Michael Valente, Managing Partner at <a href="https://1851franchise.com/renovationsells/info">Renovation Sells</a>, knows first hand how frustrating home renovations can be, and helped launch Renovation Sells as a solution to those headaches.&nbsp;&nbsp;“When you’ve got multiple trades involved — a floor guy, someone to do the counters, the backsplash needs a tile guy — that has to be controlled and managed in a specific order, we manage that process so the realtors don’t have to,” Valente told the Chicago Tribune.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/real-estate/ct-re-home-upgrades-selling-covid-19-pandemic-20201013-xwz22ufmr5dvndzzohdp33qfne-story.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=renovation-sells-talks-selling-homes-during-a-pandemic-with-the-chicago-tribune-2714474" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Read the full article at chicagotribune.com</a>.
