Post-renovation projection: show a work-in-progress property finished
A bare shell, a building site or a tired property does not sell on imagination. Buyers cannot price what they are looking at, they overestimate the work, and the offer lands well under asking.
Post-renovation projection renders the same space finished: completed walls, floors and ceilings, clean surfaces, fixtures installed, no tools and no rubble. The volume, the openings and the structure stay strictly identical.
«Virtually staged» disclosure burned into every render
BeforeAfter
When to use it
- A bare shell or a conversion unit going to market
- A property sold with work needed, where the pricing has to stay legible
- A live building site due for completion after the listing goes up
- A rental building in need of renovation, presented to investors
Best practices
- Always show the original photo next to the render: the comparison is what makes the project credible and the budget understandable.
- Stay with a scheme that is genuinely achievable on the stated budget — a high-end render on a cosmetic budget will come back at you.
- State in the listing text that the image is an illustrative projection, on top of the on-image disclosure.
- Use a style consistent with the price bracket of the street and the building.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use a renovation projection in a live listing?
Yes, provided you state clearly that it is an illustrative projection and not the current condition of the property. The disclosure has to be visible on the image, and publishing the original photo alongside it is strongly recommended.
Does the projection change the layout or the openings?
No. The building structure, the openings and the volumes are preserved. Only the finishes — walls, floors, ceilings, fixtures — are shown completed.
Does it work on a completely stripped space?
Yes, and that is the most useful case: a bare shell tells the buyer nothing, while a finished render makes the potential and the price immediately understandable.
