Our INTRODUCTION
In the real estate market, the period leading up to a property's closing can be fraught with challenges, particularly when required repairs surface. These repairs, often mandated by loan programs like the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), city inspections, or buyer requests, can delay or even derail a sale. As a real estate professional of over 35 years and a real estate broker and owner of RED Diamond Realty, I can attest that required repairs are often the most stressful part of almost every real estate transaction.
I have worked with Realtors and contractors on every type of project. We used to offer our professional contractor services only to Realtors and in-home healthcare agencies, but now ANY HOMEOWNER WHO NEEDS REPAIRS can sign into the Housefixers website or app and find a local, vetted professional. We estimate the cost, find the contractor for the job, schedule the project, and work with the homeowner every step of the way until the project is satisfactorily completed. The best way to understand Housefixrs is to think of us as Uber for contractors. We interview thousands of professionals before they are allowed access to the Housefixers platform. Once a contractor is approved, they can sign in at any time and "snag" a job near them in their line of work. We assemble the team, schedule the repairs, and work with the homeowner every step of the way until the job is done.
The company, first established in 2002, took off instantly as FHAOK incorporated and was primarily for FHA-required repairs. As the in-home healthcare industry grew, we realized that an entire market unrelated to real estate transactions was also unrecognized, encompassing repairs for in-home healthcare patients. FHAOk was a confusing brand name for this target market. And HouseFixrs was born.
Our MISSION
Housefixrs aims to provide comprehensive repair services of vetted contractors for homes in need of repair. Everyone knows of someone who does repairs but backgound checks, schedulling, estimates and professional management of the project are often lost in the wake. The contractors are great at what they do but that is only half of the job. With Housfixrs there is a partnership with the contractor that makes the entire process seamless and professional. R.S.V.P is our motto. Reliable, Skilled, Vetted, Professionals.
Our SERVICES
We specialize in a wide range of repair services, including:
-
FHA and VA Loan Repairs: Both FHA and VA loans have specific property requirements to ensure safety, structural integrity, and sanitation. For instance, the VA has established Minimum Property Requirements (MPRs) to protect the interests of Veterans, lenders, servicers, and the VA. Properties must meet these requirements before the VA guarantees the loan.
-
Buyer-Requested Repairs: Addressing any concerns or modifications requested by the buyer to ensure satisfaction and compliance with the sale agreement.
-
City Inspection Repairs: Rectifying issues identified during mandatory city inspections to comply with local regulations and codes.
-
Standard home repairs. We now offer homeowners access to our repair teams. Even if you're not moving!
Our PROCESS
-
Consultation: We review the description of the repairs and provide a reasonable estimate of the cost.
-
Proposal: The homeowner is provided with a detailed repair plan outlining the scope of work and expected timelines of the project. If the cost and timeline are acceptable, the homeowner hits "fixit".
-
Execution: Our team of licensed and vetted professionals is carefully selected based on the specific skills they provide for the required repairs.
