Questions

Buda specifics.

Yes. Buda is inside our 35-mile Austin metro service radius, and it's an area we work in regularly. Buda has grown fast enough that 2005 stock and 2023 stock sit on the same street, competing for the same buyer at nearly the same price.

Cost tracks square footage, scope and condition far more than location. Most Buda homes we prepare are mid-2000s production housing and heavy post-2018 new build. The cost estimator on this site gives a planning range in about fifteen seconds; the free walkthrough gives you the itemised number.

The recurring items here are blackland clay movement and slab-related drywall cracking; first-generation finishes now dated against brand-new competition nearby; exterior paint chalking from full sun exposure. Send us the buyer's report and we'll price every line against it within 48 hours.

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.

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.

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.

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.
