Whether you’re a homeowner getting ready to sell or lease, or a property manager overseeing commercial retail spaces, one thing's certain: your bottom line depends on how quickly and efficiently you can turn over a property. That’s where a make-ready service contract comes in—and it’s exactly why Double D Construction is trusted across Texas for these types of critical projects.


What Is a Make-Ready Service Contract?


A make-ready contract is a streamlined, start-to-finish solution that includes:


  • Initial Property Walkthrough & Inspection

  • Punch List Creation with Repairs & Recommendations

  • Quote for All Services Needed

  • Full Repair Execution (Paint, Drywall, Electrical, Plumbing, etc.)

  • Final Cleaning & Ready-to-Market Turnover


This one-stop-shop approach is not only faster - it’s smarter.

Why Property Owners, Managers & Realtors Are Signing Up


Here’s what happens without a make-ready plan:


  • You waste time juggling multiple subcontractors

  • Repairs get delayed due to scheduling gaps

  • Overlooked issues lead to failed inspections

  • Dirty or damaged properties sit on the market longer


And time is money - especially in today’s market. According to industry studies, a well-executed make-ready can reduce property downtime by up to 30%, translating to significant savings.


With Double D Construction, you eliminate the guesswork. You get one reliable partner who handles everything from the first walkthrough to the final polish, ensuring a smoother transition for everyone involved.

Residential Benefits: For Homeowners, Realtors & Landlords


If you're a homeowner, realtor, or landlord, a make-ready service contract provides numerous benefits:


  • Boost Curb Appeal and Buyer Confidence: A well-prepared property not only looks appealing but also suggests that it has been meticulously cared for, increasing buyer interest.


  • Maximize Listing Value with Quality Repairs: Issues like chipped paint, outdated fixtures, or a dirty environment can substantially reduce a property's perceived value. By making necessary repairs and upgrades, you position your home competitively on the market.


  • Ensure the Home Passes Inspections the First Time: Having a make-ready service can significantly reduce stress related to home inspections. Properties that are maintained and repaired consistently often pass inspections quickly and smoothly.


  • Save Time During Tenant Turnover: The quicker you can prepare a property for new tenants, the sooner your investment starts generating income again.


From minor handyman work to repainting, trim repairs, and touch-ups - we handle the jobs that make or break a sale or lease.
