A make ready (also called a unit turn) is everything that happens between one tenant’s move-out and the next tenant’s move-in: move-out deep cleaning, wall and drywall repair, interior paint, lock rekey or replacement, blind replacement, junk and debris removal, and a final rent-ready inspection. In Philadelphia, most landlords stitch that together from four or five separate vendors. We run the entire make ready as one scope, one crew standard, and one invoice.
Our standard is 5 business days from keys to rent-ready, against an industry average of 9 or more. Every unit closes out with a room-by-room photo report before the invoice, so out-of-state owners and property managers never have to drive over to check the work.
We turn units across Philadelphia rowhomes, Main Line rentals, and multifamily buildings across the region, including:
- Center City high-rises
- South Philly and West Philly rowhome rentals
- University City student units near Penn and Drexel
- Main Line single-family rentals
For campus-area landlords, our student housing turnover program sequences Temple, Drexel, and Penn units around the August cycle. For subsidized housing, see our Section 8 and NSPIRE inspection prep service.
Make ready pricing follows our flat tiers: Standard from $1,000, Premium from $1,800, White Glove from $2,500. See full pricing, our turnover cost guide, or the make ready checklist we work from on every unit.
