Home improvement solutions provider will help with repairs to get homes on the market
In today’s real estate market, homes in excellent condition priced right for the market will sell quickly. But what about homes in need of repairs and upgrades?
Many potential sellers will delay listing their home when faced with the obstacle and task of making necessary updates and repairs. And that makes a tight inventory market even tighter.
Now there’s a solution for homeowners in the Carolinas.
Curbio, the nation’s leading pay-at-closing home improvement solution, is now available to Allen Tate Realtors and their clients in the Charlotte and Triangle regions.
“More than 80 percent of today’s homebuyers are looking for move-in ready homes. We chose to partner with Curbio to help Allen Tate Realtors and their seller clients bring more quality listings to the market, and sell those listings faster at maximum price,” said Gary Scott, president, Allen Tate Realtors.
Curbio partners with local real estate brokerages to offer turn key services to contracted sellers, allowing them to “fix now, pay later.” From minor repairs to major remodels, Curbio’s Home Improvement Consultant will collaborate with the client and their Realtor to provide a same-day, no-obligation estimate of services, using licensed and insured contractors and tradespeople that are heavily vetted and trained by Curbio. A Curbio Project Manager will oversee each project from start to finish, ensuring on-time and on-quality delivery.
For homeowners with enough equity to cover the project costs, Curbio defers 100 percent of the payment until closing, with no fees, interest, credit checks or other restrictions. Curbio offers a full range of services, including painting, flooring, kitchen and bath remodel, landscaping and roof replacement.
“Sellers and Realtors are kept in the loop throughout the entire process, and everyone is working toward the same goal: make smart improvements before listing to increase sale price and net profit from the sale,” Scott said.
“We are excited to be partnering with Allen Tate Realtors to help their real estate agents and clients get any listing ready for market and sold for top dollar with ease,” said Olivia Mariani, vice president of marketing at Curbio.
“With Curbio, Allen Tate Realtors will have access to a completely customizable concierge solution to help clients achieve their listing goals, with no payment due until the property sells.”
“On average, homes updated by Curbio sell 50 percent faster, for $50,000 more. Curbio completes projects faster and gets your home to market sooner. We’re delighted to offer Curbio to Allen Tate clients in the Carolinas,” Scott said.
Curbio services are available to contracted sellers working with an Allen Tate Realtor in the Charlotte and Research Triangle regions. For more information, contact an Allen Tate Realtor or visit allentate.com.
