Frequently Asked Questions About Pre-Sale Renovations with MaxHousePrice

Answers to Our Most Common Questions

If you’re thinking about renovating your home before selling, you’re not alone — and you’ve probably got questions. At MaxHousePrice, we specialize in helping homeowners, agents, and investors maximize their profit with strategic, no-upfront-cost renovations. Below, you’ll find answers to the most common questions about our process, pricing, timelines, ROI, and more.

Should I renovate my house before selling or sell it “as-is”?

Strategic renovations before selling can significantly increase your home’s sale price and reduce time on the market. MaxHousePrice specializes in pre-list renovations that target high-ROI improvements. Sellers pay $0 upfront and repay at closing, allowing equity to work for them.

How do you determine the price to offer on my home?

Kitchen and bathroom updates, interior painting, new flooring, curb appeal improvements, and fixture upgrades often return 70%–100%+ ROI. MaxHousePrice focuses on the updates that move the needle in your local market.

How does MaxHousePrice’s “Sell Now, Pay Later” renovation program work?

MaxHousePrice covers renovation costs upfront. You pay nothing until closing. The home is renovated, sold for more, and the costs are paid from the sale proceeds. No interest, no fees.

What if my house doesn’t sell after MaxHousePrice renovates it?

You still don’t pay until it sells. If plans change, alternate payment terms can be arranged. Most homes renovated by MaxHousePrice sell quickly due to increased buyer demand.

How do you decide which renovations my home needs?

During the estimate phase, MaxHousePrice evaluates your home, market data, and budget to recommend high-ROI upgrades. Scope is flexible based on your equity and goals.

How much do pre-sale renovations typically cost?

Projects range from $10K cosmetic updates to $100K+ full overhauls. MaxHousePrice tailors the budget to your equity and market potential. You approve all costs upfront.

Does MaxHousePrice charge fees or interest for fronting the renovation costs?

No. There are no hidden fees or interest charges. You repay the exact renovation amount at closing. The profit from a higher sale goes to you.

How long does a pre-list renovation take?

Most projects finish in 2–8 weeks depending on scope. Timelines are managed tightly so your home can list ASAP. Cosmetic updates can take just days.

Will I need to move out during the renovation?

Not always. Many clients live at home through the process. For major renovations, temporary relocation may speed things up, but it’s not required.

Are you licensed, and do you handle permits/inspections?

Yes. MaxHousePrice is licensed and insured. We manage all permits, inspections, and code compliance so you don’t have to.

Can my real estate agent work with MaxHousePrice?

Absolutely. We frequently partner with agents to prepare listings for maximum value. Agents benefit from faster sales and more listings won.

How does MaxHousePrice benefit agents?

Agents get better sale prices, shorter time on market, and happier clients. Our services help agents win listings and close deals faster.

Do you work with investors or house flippers?

Yes. We support investors needing fast, ROI-focused renovations, and we can defer payment until resale, making it easier to scale projects

Is there a minimum or maximum project size?

We handle projects from $5K cosmetic fixes to $150K full remodels. As long as the improvements are value-driven, we can help.

Do you offer staging or pre-sale services beyond renovations?

Yes. We can arrange staging, deep cleaning, and launch prep. Some staging costs can be paid at closing too.

What kind of ROI can I expect from pre-sale renovations?

Many clients see 2x–3x ROI. For example, a $148K renovation led to a $310K higher sale price. ROI depends on your market and upgrades.
