We evaluate the current condition, compare it to your target rent, and recommend a scope that fits your budget.
Choose a refresh level or create a custom scope with fixed per-door pricing and finish specifications.
Work is scheduled around move-outs, lease dates, and resident preferences to minimize vacancy days.
Carpentry, plumbing, electrical, flooring, painting, and fixture installation are sequenced for efficiency.
Every unit passes a detailed punch list and photo documentation before being released to leasing.
For occupied upgrades, we walk the resident through the completed work and address any concerns immediately.
Even modest kitchen and bath updates can produce $100–$300 monthly rent increases in Houston's competitive market.
Renovated units lease faster and attract higher-quality applicants, reducing average vacancy days.
Well-renovated communities sell at lower cap rates and higher per-unit prices than tired, original-condition assets.
