A punch list is a checklist of actions that we need to complete so that you can comply with the terms of a building contract. When a project is in its final stages, we prepare the list to ensure that the entire project is completed. Once we have covered every item, do a walk-through with you on site. You can verify that we have done the work according to the contract. If we have missed any details or have not completed them according to the agreement, we then go back and finish the job until all terms are met.

Every property manager understands the importance of maintaining an empty house between tenants. It's often a “double whammy” of holding costs without receiving rent payments as an offset and there tends to be particular types of damage which occur in empty houses. Steady, regular maintenance has to be conducted to avoid unwanted surprises when you show the home to potential renters or buyers, or to maintain the house at full value until such time as an offer comes so you can negotiate toward the best price possible for yourself and the client seeking to rent or buy your real property.

Ideally, your house flip is going to be a quick matter of applying a new paint job, maybe putting in new carpet, and selling the home for a fair price that allows for profit to accommodate your time and effort toward getting it ready.

When you have a construction project, whether repairs or renovations, you have the options to do it yourself, hire a local handy man, or hire a licensed contractor. There are a few considerations when making the decision. You may know how to do the job, but it’s a matter of time and efficiency when you can work on it only in evenings or hire someone else to schedule it as a priority. A handy man may be able to do many jobs that come up, but likely doesn’t have the same experience and licensure as a general contractor. The contractor, in addition to the license and insurance, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the job to get it done quickly and efficiently the first time.
