REPAIR RIDDLES
The Importance of Getting Pricing for Maintenance
IsThis a Fact? Estimates can shift from expert to expert, but obtaining accurate pricing will help you serve your clients better. Never estimate based on your own expertise; instead, rely on the knowledge of a home maintenance expert. This will provide your client with real pricing, and surprises will be less likely. Furthermore, contracting experts will give you an edge in providing further assistance to your clients. The expert has already been to the home and assessed the damage, so they would be a great go-to source for the subsequent repairs. Need Some Help? In today’s specialized, niche market, finding a plumber, electrician, HVAC expert, and roofer can be a load of extra work you may not have time to do. Luckily, we’ve got you covered. At Liberty Inspection Group, we have a list of reputable contractors who we recommend. By using our contacts, you can establish a strong relationship faster and cut straight to the services you need.
At Liberty Inspection Group, we understand that one of the biggest obstacles to a sale can be a property that needs more work to meet its full potential. While repairs can be costly, being upfront with reputable pricing costs can help you establish a better working relationship with your clients and set your mark as a reliable source. IsThis Price Right? In today’s market, being honest about costs can set you above the rest. Once a buyer knows what maintenance and repair costs they may need to invest into a home, they will either be more open to considering the home as an option or move on faster
if the price isn’t right. This could grant you a quick sale or allow you to move to another potential buyer without wasting valuable time. Additionally, pricing out repairs can help you serve your sellers better. Updating a home will typically increase its value, and showing a seller the repair costs versus the value increase may convince them to spruce up their space.
