"Bethany and the whole team were SO great to work with! I worked with them on multiple renovation projects, and the feedback from prospective buyers and their Realtors was overwhelmingly positive!"

Pay at Close is available for qualifying properties. We assess each project individually to ensure it's the right fit for both the homeowner and the property.

Who Is Pay at Close For?

If any of these sound like you, we should talk.

Plenty of Equity, No Cash

Your home has equity but you don't have cash to renovate before selling. We front the cost and get paid from the sale proceeds.

Inherited Property

You've inherited a home that needs work before it can sell for top dollar. We handle the renovation so you can focus on what matters.

Relocating or Downsizing

You need to sell but don't have time or energy to manage contractors. We take the renovation off your plate entirely.

Dated Home, Hot Market

Great location, 20-year-old finishes. A kitchen and bathroom refresh can add tens of thousands to the sale price.

Failed Listing

Your home sat on the market and didn't sell. Strategic remodeling transforms it into the home buyers are competing for.

Real Estate Agents

You have a listing that needs work to get top dollar. We partner with you to renovate and maximize your client's sale price.

What happens when you renovate before listing?

Factor Pay at Close Renovation Selling As-Is
Buyer Pool Owner-occupants paying full price Investors and bargain hunters
Offer Quality Multiple offers, fewer contingencies Below asking, heavy concessions
Inspection Risk Issues handled before listing Surprises that kill deals
Showings Move-in ready, buyers feel it Dated finishes, buyer hesitation
