Long & Foster Real Estate has launched Long & Foster Lift, a concierge repairs and renovation program designed to make preparing a home for sale—or moving into a new one—faster and easier. Powered by Curbio, one of the industry’s only home improvement companies that focuses on real estate agents and their clients, Lift provides home sellers and buyers with access to local sales and project managers and trusted and licensed contractors, for everything from minor repairs to full-scale renovations.
For sellers, Lift helps ensure their homes are market-ready and positioned to sell quickly and for the best price. For buyers, Lift makes it easy to transform a new house into a move-in-ready home, with licensed professionals completing updates right after closing. Plus, Curbio’s team guarantees fast response times: replying to proposal requests within one day and fixed-price proposals within 48 hours of a walkthrough. Once hired, Curbio manages the entire renovation project, eliminating the hassle of coordinating contractors or sourcing materials. Curbio guarantees the work for one year.
“Long & Foster Lift gives homeowners peace of mind by taking the stress and guesswork out of home improvements,” said Patrick Bain, president and CEO of The Long & Foster Companies, parent company of Long & Foster Real Estate. “Whether you’re selling a home and want to maximize its value or moving in and eager to make it your own, Lift helps ensure projects are handled quickly, transparently and with the highest quality.”
With Lift, there are no required minimum project fees and they offer multiple payment options, including direct and third-party financing. Homeowners can monitor their project’s progress through the Lift mobile app, staying informed every step of the way.
“Curbio is thrilled to take its partnership with Long & Foster to the next level with the introduction of Lift,” said Curbio co-founder Matthew Siegal. “Curbio’s mission is to be the home services specialist that agents, sellers and buyers depend on to prepare every listing for sale and move-in.”
The program is now available in Northern Virginia, D.C., Montgomery County, Md., and most of the greater Baltimore metro, and it will launch throughout Long & Foster’s markets, from North Carolina to New Jersey, over the coming year.
