Frequently asked questions

You probably have some questions for us. Let’s talk.

What homes qualify?

Our goal is to help as many homeowners as possible maximize the value of their homes. However, we do require a minimum of 26% equity in the home.

Are there project minimums or maximums?

There are no minimums or maximums with Revive. As long as there is enough equity to cover the cost, the project makes sense from a return on investment standpoint, and the project can be completed in under 90 days, then it is a good fit.

Are you more expensive than hiring my own contractor?

There is no fee to use our vetted contractor network, and our contractors do not markup their prices. In fact, it's the opposite.

Revive works with contractors that are used to working for investors and flippers, in which everything pre-construction is done for them, allowing them to show up and focus on the labor part of the job. These contractors value the consistency and support Revive provides. Revive has pre-negotiated pricing with these vendors, much like an insurance company, and passes that pricing to the consumer.

Now, this does not necessarily mean that someone else could not offer a lower price, but if it is an apples-to-apples comparison in which you are hiring a licensed and insured vendor with a support team of quality control, design, procurement, and also fronting the money, then we would say that pricing is very competitive.

Why do pre-sale renovations instead of selling 'as-is'?

Pre-sale renovations are just an option, you can sell as is, but we are here to explore what it would look like if we brought your home to market in a turnkey position.

Today's buyers are largely made up of the millennial generation and are most interested in turnkey properties. On average, homeowners leave 15-20% of their home's value on the table when selling 'as-is'. A recent NAR stat tells us that 7 in 10 of today's buyers would sacrifice square footage for a move-in-ready, turnkey home.

What tpe of home improvement projects can you cover?

Revive can cover anything needed to get a home ready for market (as long as it makes sense from a value-add perspective and takes 90 days or less to complete in total). Some typical examples are full interior renovations, kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, interior/exterior paint, landscaping, staging, and cleaning.

Can I live in the home during renovations?

No, for health, safety, and efficiency reasons, homes cannot be occupied during renovations. Suggestions would be to move in with family/friends, get a rental, use Airbnb, stay in a hotel, or move into your next home.
