2020 NE 54th St, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33308

A fully permitted Coral Ridge renovation, sold at $1.12M ($580/sq ft) - turnkey with a paper trail, priced to meet the real buyer pool.

The renovation created the product. Pricing discipline completed the sale. This Coral Ridge four-bedroom, renovated top to bottom by a local developer with full permits on record, closed at $1,120,000 in December 2025 - approximately $580 per square foot across 1,932 square feet. Oleg Sergiienko and Catherine Kolga ran the sale as a team effort. The documented permit history mattered more than any finish: post-Surfside, Fort Lauderdale buyers and their inspectors treat unpermitted work as a price deduction, so a renovation with a complete paper trail competes in a cleaner category. On pricing, the team calibrated to showing feedback rather than defending an aspirational number, which kept the home in front of the actual buyer pool for renovated Coral Ridge product and carried the contract to closing.

A price adjustment is not a failure; it is information acting on price. The cost of holding an aspirational number is measured in days on market and stale-listing discount - usually more than the adjustment itself.

Oleg Sergiienko and Catherine Kolga, as a team effort, positioned the permitted renovation, gathered and acted on showing feedback, and negotiated the closing.

Buyers paid for the renovation they could verify, at the price the market confirmed.
