Why Curbio?
All homes need updates and repairs before going on the market, but the traditional improvement process is slow, unreliable, and can be risky when a home transaction is on the line.
We believe there is a better way to complete pre-listing updates, and we’ve proven it! Now you can experience a simple, streamlined home improvement solution that eliminates the stress of getting homes market-ready.

Make pre-listing updates an option for all
100% of the project cost is deferred until the home sells with no upfront deposits, progress payments, fees, interest charges, or credit checks. Removing concerns about cash flow accelerates the process, allowing Curbio to get started immediately after the contract is signed.
Curbio makes money the same way a general contractor does, and homeowners receive all the profit from the sale of the home. Always.
Curbio’s, fixed-price proposals are easy to understand and provide the transparency consumers demand.
Your clients will never be surprised with up-charges or fees. The price of the project remains the same regardless of increases in the costs of materials and labor.
Project Management: Curbio removes all the hassle from home improvement by providing agents and their sellers with a dedicated Project Manager, who sees to every detail of your project. Your Project Manager is a full-time Curbio employee who will send regular text and photo updates via the Curbio app—ensuring you’re never in the dark!
Materials: We provide a curated catalog of materials tailored to what buyers want. Selecting materials for your project is easy and can be done within the app.
But the service doesn’t stop there. Curbio handles all sourcing and deliveries for pre-listing projects, meaning you won’t have to worry about supply chain issues, increases in prices, or being physically present for deliveries.
Permitting: Permits for home improvement projects can cost anywhere from $50-$6,000, depending on the project and the market. Many contractors aren’t upfront about permit costs, but all permit costs are included in Curbio’s proposals from the start.
All permit applications and paperwork will be completed and pulled per your city’s requirements.
Pricing is consistent and fair, and falls in line with national averages in each of the markets we operate in. With standardized prices, you’ll never experience wild fluctuations based on seasonality, workload, or zip code.
Our pricing falls right in line with market averages and comes paired with 5-star communication and turnkey concierge service.
To provide agents and their clients with added peace-of-mind, we offer a price-match guarantee to ensure you know that you’re receiving a fair, competitive price for the work we complete.
We’re your trusted home improvement partner
Curbio was created to help real estate agents fix up their client’s homes to sell them faster and for top dollar. While we’re the experts in pre-listing home improvement, we leave the job of pricing real estate and representing sellers in the transaction to the experts!
Finding, vetting, managing, and coordinating trades takes up a ton of time and is not what agents signed up for! With Curbio, agents save an average of 40 hours managing projects because your Curbio Project Manager has everything covered!
We have an entire team excited to hear from you about any pre-listing improvements you need to get market-ready, no matter the size! Whether you’re requesting an estimate for a listing you’ve won or preparing for a listing presentation to win the listing, Curbio estimates are free and require no obligation.

To ensure we only work with best-in-class subcontractors, all trades must be licensed and insured and go through a strict vetting process. Your dedicated Project Manager will manage and oversee all trades and work completed.
Subcontractors are critical to our success and love working with Curbio. You can rest assured knowing that Curbio pays its subs within 7 business days, on average, and is one of the fastest payers in the country.
We work hand-in-hand with the real estate agent and homeowner to understand the goals of selling. Whether it’s a quick touch-up project or a profit-driven renovation, we marry the agent’s expertise and our experience in pre-listing updates to narrow in on improvements that will add value, attract more buyers, reduce number of days on market, and maximize ROI.
Many real estate agents can tell the tale of a contractor who didn’t show up, and was never heard from again. With Curbio, you’re working with a national company that cares as much about its reputation and client satisfaction as you do yours.
Your Project Manager will be in contact with you regularly with everything from photos of completed jobs to permit statuses and schedule check-ins. If questions do arise, both the real estate agent and the homeowner are able to send messages directly to your Project Manager anytime and from anywhere.
A hassle-free experience from start to finish
A Curbio Home Improvement Consultant (HIC) will be your first point of contact. Our HICs work with Realtors® and their clients to provide free estimates for projects of all sizes. From there, you’ll work together to fine-tune the scope and they will deliver a fast and reliable fixed-price proposal.
If you’re looking for additional guidance, our HICs can help! Made up, primarily, of former real estate agents, the HIC team has a deep understanding of which updates will help a home sell faster and for more.
Your dedicated Project Manager will be your main point of contact and super sidekick, managing and executing on your pre-listing projects.
Project Managers are full-time Curbio employees with insider market knowledge and an average of 12-15 years’ experience directly managing residential home improvement projects.
Your Curbio Project Manager will take care of every detail including:
- Ordering materials and lining up subcontractors
- Overseeing all trades and work completed

- Facilitating walkthroughs, sign-offs, and final punchlist reviews
- Managing timeline and communication
Your Project Manager will send you frequent text and visual updates and ensure your projects are completed on time and at max quality, so you can close every transaction seamlessly.
Our in-house Design Team pairs industry knowledge with data from our thousands of projects to carefully select each fixture and finish. We work hand-in-hand with our national vendors to select materials that are in-stock and ready-to-ship, cutting down on project timelines. Making material selections is easy with our curated catalog found in the Curbio app.
The Curbio Design Team also provides renderings for larger projects involving whole-home renovations, additions, and floor-plan changes.
Curbio is the licensed and insured General Contractor on every project. Curbio strictly works with licensed and insured subcontractors and tradespeople. All contractors and tradespeople are heavily vetted and trained by Curbio for professionalism and quality.
We believe agents and homeowners shouldn’t worry about vetting subs and ensuring the work is completed on time and at max quality. Subcontractors are critical to your project’s success and are treated, in many ways, as our customer. Curbio is the fastest subcontractor payer in the country, paying subs within an average of 7 business days, with an option for same-day payment when their work for us is completed.
A modern, hassle-free home improvement experience
