Curbio, Inc., a pay-at-closing home improvement tool for the real estate industry, announced the launch of its new mobile app. The app allows real estate agents and home sellers to get estimates for pre-listing home improvement costs and projected ROI. Agents and their clients can now upload an inspection report right to the app and Curbio will provide an estimate on the repairs noted in the report.
Realtors and homeowners can get an immediate price estimate for repairs, updates and renovations and the estimated ROI. Users can choose to begin work immediately with Curbio, or they can use the data to make an informed decision about pre-listing and pre-sale home improvements.
“Pre-listing home improvements are critical for selling for the highest possible price in this increasingly competitive housing market. With sales prices down nationally, and with increased demand for move-in-ready properties, sellers need to update their home before listing to sell quickly and for top dollar,” said Olivia Mariani, Chief Marketing Officer at Curbio. “Most people don’t have access to reliable data to understand what pre-listing projects cost or which updates truly increase the value of their home. The only way to really get an estimate is to have a contractor come out to your home, they measure, they take a few weeks to get back to you and you’re not sure if the quote is competitive. With our new mobile app, homeowners are empowered with data that will allow them to make an informed decision about pre-listing home improvements, so they can get the most value out of their home without the hassle of traditional home improvement.”
The price estimate and ROI data displayed in the app has been compiled based on Curbio’s thousands of completed projects. The information generated is customized based on market, project size and project type.
In addition to pre-listing estimates, the Curbio mobile app also offers estimates on repairs that come up during inspections.
