Question 1

Do you serve Austin, TX?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Austin is inside our 35-mile Austin metro service radius, and it's an area we work in regularly. Central Austin runs from 1930s bungalows in Travis Heights to new-build infill east of I-35 — two entirely different repair lists in the same ZIP code.

Question 2

What does a make-ready cost in Austin?

Accepted Answer

Cost tracks square footage, scope and condition far more than location. Most Austin homes we prepare are pre-war bungalows, 1960s–70s ranches, and dense post-2015 infill. The cost estimator on this site gives a planning range in about fifteen seconds; the free walkthrough gives you the itemised number.

Question 3

What do inspections usually flag on Austin homes?

Accepted Answer

The recurring items here are pier-and-beam levelling and sloped floors in pre-1960 central stock; original cast-iron and galvanised supply lines flagged on nearly every inspection; knob-and-tube or ungrounded two-prong circuits in hyde park and travis heights. Send us the buyer's report and we'll price every line against it within 48 hours.

Question 4

What exactly is a make-ready?

Accepted Answer

A make-ready prepares a home to be listed or re-rented: interior paint, flooring repair or replacement, fixture and hardware updates, minor repairs, curb appeal and a photography-grade clean. The goal is a house that photographs well and shows without excuses.

Question 5

How fast can you turn a quote around?

Accepted Answer

Within 48 hours of the walkthrough for almost every project. If you send a buyer's inspection report by email we can often price the list before we set foot on the property, then confirm on site.

Question 6

Do you work directly from a buyer's inspection report?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and it is a large share of what we do. Email the PDF and we return an itemised quote against every line item, work the list with licensed trades where the item calls for one, and photograph each completed item for the re-inspection.

Question 7

What does a make-ready typically cost in Austin?

Accepted Answer

It depends far more on square footage and scope than on neighbourhood. A cosmetic turn on a small condo and a full pre-listing make-ready on a long-owner home are different orders of magnitude, which is why we built a cost estimator on this site rather than publishing a single number that would be wrong for most houses.
