Pre-Sale Home Improvements With No Payments Until Settlement.
Stick with who you know but enjoy the same payment plan
No credit checks and fast approvals.
Many homesellers already have a handyman or contractor they like, trust, and would prefer to use. We understand which is why Settle Rite has launched the “Pre-Sale Helper” program.
This program allows you, the homeseller, to work with your favorite contractor and develop a plan in which you both are comfortable with. Simply submit the contractor info to Settle Rite along with that plan and for a small management fee, we make sure they are paid immediately upon completion of work, but needn’t pay until settlement— just like our other plans.
So go ahead, submit your project below. We can help for both renovations or inspection repairs.
Frequently asked Questions:
Does it add to my cost?
Yes, but the increase in cost is marginal and provides you the flexibility to delay payments until closing. We find our fees are generally lower than what buyer concessions cost.
Does my Pro need to be licensed?
Yes. In order to participate in the Settle Rite program, your contractor must be licensed to do all required work in your local jurisdiction.
What happens if work is sub-standard?
You control the entire process. If your are dissatisfied with the work performed, you can reject payment. We can even help find a replacement contractor to make repairs.
How is approval decided?
There are no credit checks and no marks on your credit report (Settle Rite does not effect your ability to obtain your next mortgage). The approvals for this program are based on your home's equity, the amount of work to be performed, and your assessed value or contract price.
