Pre-Sale Prep

Sell for what your home could be worth.

Renovate, stage, and list — without writing the check up front. Zoom Casa funds the work; you repay it at closing, out of the higher sale price you'll get because of it. Typical project captures $80K–$200K in additional sale-price premium for a $20K–$60K renovation budget.

What Pre-Sale Prep does

A program built around three commitments.

$0

Out of pocket

Zoom Casa funds the renovation, the staging, the photography, the prep — every dollar. You don't write a check, you don't take out a loan, you don't refinance. The cost gets repaid out of your sale proceeds at closing. If the sale doesn't happen for any reason, the math protects you (full terms in the FAQ).

Vendors

Vetted, accountable

Our vendor network — contractors, painters, stagers, landscapers, inspectors — is locally curated, insurance-verified, and accountable directly to Zoom Casa. They know our spec, hit our timeline, and don't quote you. We pay them; you stay out of project management.

Typical return

Across our PSP portfolio, the average sale-price premium captured is roughly 4× the renovation budget — a $30K kitchen + paint + staging package typically returns $120K+ in additional sale price. We only recommend renovation when the math works; otherwise we'll tell you to list as-is.

How Pre-Sale Prep works

Three steps. You stay out of the trade vans.

From your address in the box to a sold home with renovation premium captured: typically 8–12 weeks total. The work is funded, scheduled, and project-managed by Zoom Casa; you provide access and approve the spec.

See your renovation upside in 60 seconds

Address-first. We pull your home's as-is value from AVM + market data, then compare it to what comparable renovated homes in your market are selling for. The result: a recommended renovation budget and a projected post-renovation sale price. If the math doesn't justify the work, we tell you.

No email required to see the scenario
ii

Approve the scope, sign the agreement

Your consultant walks the property (in person or via video) and writes the renovation spec — kitchen, paint, flooring, staging, landscaping, whatever moves the math. You approve scope and budget. The PSP agreement is signed. Zoom Casa funds the work directly to vendors.

Project kickoff within 5 business days
iii

Renovate, list, close

Vendor network handles the work — typically 3–6 weeks for a focused kitchen-paint-staging project, longer for structural. We coordinate, project-manage, photograph, and stage. Then your listing agent (yours, ours, or one we introduce) puts the home on the market. At close, the renovation cost is repaid out of your proceeds.

The Math

A worked example. The numbers, in writing.

A 1980s split-level in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. Original kitchen, dated bathrooms, decent bones. Owner inherited from her mother and is selling. As-is comparable sales suggest $720K. Renovated comparable sales support $920K+. Here's what the renovation upside math looks like.

Pre-Sale Prep · Sample scenario
+$140,000
Net premium captured · Real Bed-Stuy 2026 case
  • As-is sale price estimate$720,000
  • Recommended renovation budget$42,000
  • Post-renovation sale price$920,000
  • Less renovation cost (repaid at close)$42,000
  • Less PSP fee (15% of premium)$30,000
  • Net additional proceeds vs. as-is+$128,000

When PSP doesn't make sense: homes in markets where the as-is and renovated comparable prices are within 10% of each other. If a $30K renovation moves the sale price by $35K, the math doesn't justify the disruption. Your PSP consultant runs this check before any agreement is signed — and we'll explicitly tell you to list as-is if that's the right move.

From Inside Zoom Casa · Explainer

How Pre-Sale Prep funds renovations without writing a check.

Pre-Sale Prep is structurally different from a bridge loan, a HELOC, or a cash-out refi. Zoom Casa funds the renovation work directly to vendors; the cost is repaid out of sale proceeds at closing — not before. Walk through the mechanics and the line items.

Our portfolio

Real homes. Our work.

Every house in this grid is one Zoom Casa has actually prepped — not stock photography. Kitchens, exteriors, baths, full-house refreshes. Thousands of projects, public-facing here only after the homeowner has consented to share. Filter by program, by region, by scope-of-work.

Awaiting photo handoffJohn flagged on 5/6: "We share actual photos of homes that we've done. We have thousands. It might even be something to do with just a massive list of homes and photos of prior work. We'd like to have all of the pictures actually be of our houses." Once the portfolio lands, this section becomes the real gallery — and stock photography on the rest of the page gets the same swap.

Your consultant

A real person, on a direct line.

PSP scenarios are part real estate and part construction. The consultant who runs your PSP scenario has been on more job-sites than most general contractors — they walk the property, write the spec, and stay on the deal end to end. Bilingual (English / Spanish) consultants available on request.

One name, start to finish. Submit your net sheet and a Zoom Casa solution consultant calls you back — a real person, with a direct line and a direct email. That same consultant underwrites your offer, walks you through the math, and closes the deal. You will not be handed off, re-explain your situation, or wonder who is on the file.

Frequently Asked

Questions sellers ask most.

If something isn't here, the consultant call is the place — every consultant is empowered to answer detailed scope, timing, and accountability questions on the first call.

What's the program fee?

PSP fee is **15% of the renovation premium captured**, calculated as *(post-renovation sale price) − (renovation cost) − (as-is comparable price)*. Sample: $200K post-reno premium × 15% = $30K PSP fee, paid out of sale proceeds. If the renovation doesn't capture premium above the threshold, we eat the cost — full terms in the agreement.

What if I want to manage the renovation myself?

Then PSP isn't right for you — and that's fine. PSP exists for sellers who don't want to project-manage trades. If you have your own contractors, your own vision, and time to oversee it, you'll capture more of the premium yourself. Our consultants will tell you that on the call.

What kinds of renovations does PSP fund?

Whatever moves the math: kitchens, bathrooms, paint, flooring, landscaping, staging, photography. We don't do additions, full structural work, or anything requiring a permit beyond standard remodel scope. If your home needs a new roof or major foundation work, we'll redirect you toward a Cash Offer+ scenario instead.

Who oversees the contractors?

Zoom Casa's local project manager — a real human in your market — owns the schedule, the spec, and the punch list. You provide property access; they handle everything else. You see weekly progress photos and a final walkthrough before listing.

What if a contractor damages my home?

Every PSP contractor carries general liability + workers' comp insurance verified by Zoom Casa before they're brought into the network. Damage during the project is repaired before close at vendor expense, not yours. The PSP agreement spells this out in plain English.

What if the home doesn't sell at the projected price?

The renovation cost is repaid first from sale proceeds — that comes off the top regardless. The PSP fee is calculated only on the actual premium captured, not the projection. If the post-renovation sale comes in at $850K instead of $920K, our fee shrinks proportionally. We're aligned with you on the upside.

See your scenario. Decide from there.

No email required to see the math. The renovation budget, projected sale price, and PSP fee are calculated and shown before any conversation. If the math doesn't work, you've lost 60 seconds. If it does, the next step is a 15-minute call with your consultant.
