FAQ
Before you demo, here's what to know
Why does having multiple units increase buyer interest?
Volume and consistency attract contractors, flippers, and bulk resellers. Identical cabinets, appliances, and flooring across units are features buyers actively search for - they'd need months sourcing them individually.
Can you work with phased renovations where units turn over at different times?
Yes. Phased sales are common for multi-unit buildings. Sales are batched and promoted independently as units become available, with proceeds accumulating throughout the renovation.
What's the minimum building size?
No firm minimum. Success depends more on materials than unit count. Quality original hardwood, vintage fixtures, and intact kitchen sets drive buyer interest regardless of unit count.
Do you work with property management companies and institutional owners?
Yes. Property managers, ownership groups, REITs, and developers are primary clients. Our workflows adapt to vendor approval processes and accounting requirements.
How does buyer access and removal work across multiple occupied or partially occupied units?
Buyers only access fully vacated, cleared units. Occupied units are off-limits. Removal windows are scheduled to minimize tenant disruption; buyers handle disassembly and removal.
