Safety, moisture, smoke alarms, finish, curb appeal
Text a photo of any report — inspection or appraisal — to (555) 555-5555 and I'll call back with a number same day.
Book one item or the whole scope. Everything below rolls into a single visit and a single bill.
An appraisal is information, not a verdict — and most properties never need a follow-up. When one does, it's a short, specific list. I go back out, fix exactly what's on it, and hand back dated photos and paid invoices your agent can put in front of the lender the same week.
Report, photos, or just a description of the property. Same-day call back with a scope and a number.
One visit to confirm the minimum scope — what actually moves the number, and what doesn't.
Safety, moisture, systems, finish, curb — handled in one trip on a schedule that works for you.
Most jobs stop at step three. If the appraisal needs support, one more targeted visit — no new scope, no starting over.
Most jobs are billed the standard way, on completion. If you'd rather have the cost settle out of proceeds at closing, that can be written into the listing agreement as a line item — ask when you call. Terms are agreed in writing before any work starts.
Send what's going on with the property, get one number back, one invoice when it's finished.
Keep this number on the checklist. Same contractor, same process, every time — including comeback visits after a low appraisal.
Pass along the report. Items get closed out and documented, not left for someone else to chase.
(555) 555-5555 — text a photo of any report, or call and talk it through.
