Pre-sale renovation

For listing agents and homeowners with stale luxury inventory. Show-ready transformations on agent timelines. Pay-at-close arrangements available.

Washington state's high-end inventory is sitting longer than it has in years. New tax pressure on $1M+ earners has pushed sellers into a market with thinning buyers and rising days-on-market. The properties moving are the ones that show. The properties sitting are the ones that need work. We're the contractor to call when a stale listing needs to become a show-ready listing — fast. Pre-sale renovation on agent timelines, quotes in 48 hours, start in 7 days, and pay-at-close arrangements available for qualified sellers. We've been the contractor on the other side of difficult listings before. We know what moves a property.

Quotes in 48 hours

We come on-site, walk the property with you and your seller, identify the highest-leverage improvements, and quote within 48 hours. No two-week proposal cycles. The market doesn't wait.

Pay-at-close

For qualified listings (luxury inventory in stable markets, motivated sellers, reasonable timeline), we can defer payment until close. Our work funded out of the sale proceeds. Discuss specifics with your listing agent.

Highest-leverage improvements

We focus on the improvements that move list-to-sale ratios most: roof condition, deck and outdoor living, hardscape and curb appeal, and the exterior envelope details that buyers walk away from in inspection.
