Considering the purchase of property in West Palm Beach for a luxury home renovation?

STUDIO 818’s Buy-It-Right Property Consulting™ helps you identify the right property before you make an offer—and avoid costly surprises after closing.

Whether you plan to renovate an existing home, expand a mid-century structure, or build a new custom home in a prime neighborhood, we help you assess each opportunity through the lens of design, budget, zoning, and long-term value.

The West Palm Beach market presents unique opportunities—and challenges. Older homes in El Cid and Prospect Park often come with structural or historical limitations. In SoSo and South End, lots vary dramatically in layout and zoning. And in The Acreage or Northwood, renovation budgets can quickly balloon without proper feasibility review.

We bring the insight and due diligence most buyer’s agents can’t—so you invest with clarity from day one.

  • Zoning and site constraint analysis

    (essential in Coastal areas)

Why Now? Understanding the Value Shift

New NAR rules require most buyers to pay their agent directly. That means you have more choice—and more responsibility—in who represents your interests.

Are you paying someone to walk you through listings—or to guide one of the most important investments of your life?
