Pre Listing Preparations
Get Market-Ready with Ease and Efficiency
Preparing a home for sale doesn’t have to mean a full renovation — sometimes, it’s the thoughtful, foundational touches that make the biggest impact. Our Basic Listing Prep service is designed to help homeowners and real estate agents in Santa Barbara present properties in their best light with minimal disruption and maximum return.
We focus on clean, effective improvements that enhance appeal, create inviting spaces, and ensure the home shows beautifully both online and in person.
What’s Included in Listing Prep
Flooring Updates
We replace or repair worn or outdated flooring to give your home a clean, modern foundation that appeals to today’s buyers.
Repairs
From patching drywall to fixing door hinges and leaky faucets, we handle a range of minor fixes that can otherwise distract potential buyers.
Painting
A fresh coat of neutral paint can transform a home. We touch up or repaint entire rooms to create bright, welcoming interiors that feel move-in ready.
De-cluttering
We help organize and clear spaces so each room feels open, functional, and easy to envision as a future home.
Landscaping
We tidy up outdoor areas with light landscaping, trimming, and touch-ups that boost curb appeal and create a strong first impression.
Hardware Swaps
We replace outdated cabinet knobs, light fixtures, and door handles with modern, cohesive hardware for an instant style refresh.
Staging
Our expert staging service adds warmth, scale, and style to your home — helping buyers emotionally connect with the space from the moment they walk in.
Yard Clean Up
We clean, sweep, prune, and remove debris from the front and back yards to ensure the entire property feels well maintained and inviting.
Detail Interior Cleaning
