How it Works
Powered by tech, data, and on-site project management, our turn-key process was built to reduce time spent on renovations and enable real estate agents to sell more homes, faster.
Estimate
We’ll tell you about how much the renovation will cost right away.
Once you’ve identified a property that will benefit from pre-sale renovations, submit a request for an estimate. One of our Home Improvement Consultants will be in touch within 24 hours to discuss:
- The property’s as-is list price
- The amount owed on the property
- The work you think needs to be done
- The after-renovation list price
After your discussion, you’ll receive a general estimate to share with your seller.
Virtual Walkthrough
We use tech to virtually tour the property and finalize the scope of work.
If your seller would like to move forward, we’ll schedule a time for our video tech to visit the property and capture a high-resolution, 3D video of the property (free of charge). The video allows us to see the home’s details and determine renovation costs without numerous site visits that take up agent and homeowners’ time.
Your Home Improvement Consultant will schedule a virtual walkthrough to review the 3D video with you and your seller and determine project scope. You can participate in the virtual walkthrough from any computer or mobile device with internet.
Contract
Your seller signs our contract electronically.
The homeowner will sign both a deed of trust and a contract that details the scope of work. Once the contract is signed, we’ll start on the renovations within 5-7 business days.
Renovation
The renovation is managed from beginning to end by your Project Manager.
Our renovation process is completely turn-key. Our Project Manager will handle everything from the permits to the punch list while you and your sellers go about your daily lives. You’ll also receive timely updates through the Curbio portal. We want to get the house on the market quickly (just like you do!), so we generally complete our projects within 4-8 weeks.
On the Market
You’ll list the home after our renovation is complete.
Once the project is complete, the property needs to be listed within 5 days and remain on the market until it sells, unless they choose to pay Curbio directly for our work.
Closing
We get paid for our work through the proceeds of the sale.
No need to worry about paying Curbio directly. Title company will pay us for our renovations through the proceeds of the sale at settlement.
