What it costs

Nashville rental rehab pricing.

Four common versions of this project, and what they run around Nashville. The right scope depends on whether you're holding, selling or renting by the night.

Ranges are what jobs like yours have run recently, not a quote. The written estimate is the number that counts.

Where the money goes

The four things that decide your budget.

On an open-book job you'll see all of this on the cost report. Here's what to expect before you ever sign.

  • Scope to your numbers

    We start with your purchase price, your rent or resale target and your budget. Then we put the money where it moves the number and leave out what doesn't.

  • Durable, standard finishes

    Waterproof plank, one paint color, stock cabinets and common fixtures. Easy to repair, easy to match on the next turn, and they hold up to tenants and guests.

  • Systems and inspection items

    Roof, HVAC, water heater, electrical panel and plumbing are what show up on a buyer's inspection or turn into tenant calls. We look at them first and tell you what's worth replacing now.

  • Lender draws and paperwork

    Hard-money and renovation lenders want an itemized scope, a draw schedule and proof of work. On cost-plus, every draw comes with receipts and photos.

“Can you work to my lender's draw schedule?”
The question everybody asks first

Yes. We write the scope and budget the way lenders want them, tie each payment to finished work, and send photos and receipts with every draw request. You get a weekly update, so you're not driving over to check on progress.

Questions we get

Before you call anybody.

Do you work on occupied rentals?

Yes. We coordinate access with you or your property manager and schedule around tenants, phasing work so the unit stays livable.

Can you renovate a short-term rental?

Yes. We know what guests notice and what breaks: durable floors, good lighting, solid hardware and bathrooms that photograph well. We work fast between bookings when the calendar is tight.

Will you walk a property before I buy?

Yes. We'll walk it with you and give you a rough rehab budget so you can make your offer with real numbers.

Do you handle permits on investment property?

Every one that's required. Unpermitted work causes trouble at resale, refinance and insurance claims.

Can you handle multiple properties?

Yes. Repeat investors get a standard finish list and pricing, so every unit is faster to scope and easier to maintain.
