Before & After: Stunning Jeremy Ranch Home Remodel in Just 2 Months!
This is the project I point to when people ask whether the fixer-upper math still works in Park City. My client High West Contracting bought this Jeremy Ranch home — with my help on the acquisition — and completely transformed it in just over two months: from a closed-off, dated 1980s layout to a modern, open-concept home with finishes that compete with new construction.
What two months bought
- Dividing walls came down for a true open-concept main level
- New modern fireplace as the living room's anchor
- Fully remodeled kitchen — dark cabinets warmed with white-oak accents
- A luxury primary suite with custom walk-in closet and steam shower
- Heated floors and under-lighting — the touches buyers read as "high-end" instantly
- Fully renovated basement apartment with so much natural light it reads above-grade
- Oversized two-car garage with extra-deep bays and a workbench
Why this pencils in Jeremy Ranch
The strategy stands on two numbers I talk about constantly. First, Jeremy Ranch's original-versus-remodeled spread: this neighborhood is full of great-bones 1980s and '90s homes trading at meaningful discounts to renovated comps, in a market where buyers pay 20–30% premiums for turnkey. Second, the neighborhood's momentum — nearly 12% annual appreciation over the past decade, and homes going under contract in under two weeks this summer. Buy the dated house right, execute the renovation fast, and the market does the rest.
The speed matters more than people think, and it's why the builder relationship is the real asset here. Two months of holding costs is a rounding error; a wandering nine-month renovation eats the margin. High West had the scope, materials, and crew sequenced before demo day — that's the difference between a project and a plan.

I help clients find these opportunities all over the Park City area — the houses with good bones on good streets where the renovation math actually works — and I can bring the builder to the walkthrough. Watch the before-and-after above, then let's go find yours.
