Renovations & upgrades

We bid to the rent, not to a catalog. Sometimes the right answer is the cheap tier.

Good, Better, Best for a 2BR

Over-improving a unit is the most expensive mistake in this business. It doesn’t show up until re-lease.

Good

Paint throughout, LVP in the wet areas, new fixtures and hardware, deep clean.

The unit just needs to look cared for.

Better

Full LVP, resurfaced bath surround, new counters, lighting package, appliances as needed.

You’re competing with newer stock down the street.

Best

New cabinets and counters, full bath, all appliances, lighting package, doors and hardware.

A reposition. Usually phased across the building.

We’ll tell you which tier your building supports. Sometimes that’s Good.

Phased work in an occupied building

Most value-add money gets spent in buildings that are full. We work unit by unit as they come vacant. The corridor gets cleaned at the end of every day, and material gets staged where it isn’t in a resident’s way. You handle notice and access. We hold the dates.

What we need to phase it

  • Your vacancy pipeline for the next 90 days.
  • The rent band you’re targeting at re-lease.
  • Who signs off on a change, and how fast.
  • Any unit that must stay occupied through the work.

Pick a building and we’ll walk it.

We’ll tell you which tier it supports and what that costs.
