Before your home hits the market, we walk it with you and build a prioritized, priced plan of the repairs and improvements worth making before you list — so you handle problems on your terms, not under a buyer's deadline.
The TRE (Transaction Readiness) Report is a general contractor's repair plan and estimate. We walk your home, recommend the repairs and improvements worth making before you list, put them in priority order by what matters most to buyers and lenders, and price each one — the same way we'd scope and quote any project. It's a game plan for getting the home market-ready, not an evaluation of its condition.
Both have a place. They answer different questions.
A pre-listing walkthrough with your contractor — room by room and outside — the same way we'd look at any home before quoting work.
We list the repairs and improvements worth making before you list, and note which ones tend to matter to FHA/conventional lenders and buyers.
The plan is ordered into three tiers — must-fix, recommended, and value-add — so you know what to tackle first.
Every line gets a real price range plus tier subtotals and a total — a clear estimate, not a vague "you should fix that."
Repairs tied to lending or safety that can hold up an FHA/conventional appraisal — the work to handle first.
Repairs buyers commonly ask for — handle them up front and you keep control of the negotiation.
Optional improvements that strengthen offers, curb appeal, and time-on-market when the budget allows.
A clear, documented plan — useful to the seller, the agent, and the buyer's file.
For qualifying sellers and approved scopes, you don't have to fund the repairs up front. Once you approve the scope and the price, we complete the work now and get paid at closing — with payment issued by the title company from your sale proceeds. The home shows its best without cash out of pocket, nothing happens without your sign-off, and the $249 plan fee credits toward the work.
Fix what matters before you list — on your schedule and your budget — instead of scrambling under a buyer's repair demand with the deal on the line.
Hand your seller a credible, priced repair plan up front, so common buyer repair requests are handled before they threaten the close. A clean co-marketing piece for your listing presentations.
