How many different people have to come to that house?
A listing that needs work needs 6 or 7 separate businesses. A painter. A cleaner. A stager. Someone for the carpet, someone for the yard, someone for the handful of small repairs nobody wants to take on.
Every one of them is a call, a quote to chase, a window you have to be there for, and a drive across the county. Six mornings gone before the photographer arrives.
We take all of it. You get one number to call and a written plan before anything starts.
How it works
The walkthrough is free, and nothing is ordered or moved until you have the scope and the price in writing.
A free visit, booked around your schedule. We go room by room against a written checklist — every surface, fixture, appliance and access question that affects what the house needs.
Essential is what has to be put right for the house to go to market. Enhancing is built after we look at what else is on the market right now, and covers what would make this property stand out against it. Each is a full written scope of work with one price for the whole package. You pick one, or you change it.
Once a plan is chosen we sign our agreement with the homeowner, then send out a document to sign with each trade on the list — the painter signs with the homeowner, the stager signs with the homeowner, and so on down the list. As the work is paid for, the homeowner sees what went to each business. Everything is transparent.
We source, find and oversee every business on the job and hold them to the dates, with a photo update before 10 each working day, so you never have to drive over to check. At the end the homeowner gets one folder holding every document, signed agreement and receipt — the paperwork a seller is asked for during the sale.
What we handle
If it has to happen before the house goes live, it is on our list. If it needs a licensed trade, we find one and oversee the work.

Handyman · floor gaps closed · shelves refixed · carpet re-stretched and deep cleaned · paint · staging
Nothing structural and nothing dramatic — gaps in the floorboards closed, shelves put back on properly, the carpet re-stretched and deep cleaned, the walls repainted, and then the stager came in. Here is some before and after.
Photographs of work we have run, published with the homeowner’s permission.
