I have nothing but great things to say about HOMEstretch. As an active Realtor in the area, I’ve partnered with them on numerous listings, and they have consistently exceeded both my expectations and those of my clients. From simple paint touch-ups to major renovations and everything in between, their team delivers outstanding results with professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail.Brad, Christie, and Nick make the entire process seamless—from the initial meeting with the homeowner and the prompt delivery of a detailed estimate to the quick turnaround once the work is approved. They are proactive, communicative, and always show up ready to get the job done right.What I appreciate most is how HOMEstretch removes the stress and burden from homeowners while helping present a truly move-in-ready property to prospective buyers. Their work has helped several of my clients maximize the value of their homes, and in multiple cases has contributed to generating strong interest and even multiple-offer situations. I highly recommend HOMEstretch to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable team to prepare their home for the market or tackle any renovation project. Their service and results are second to none.

Excellent team. These folks do great work in a timely and affordable manner. They paid attention to detail, and offered some great advice. After the work was completed the owner got a full price offer within 2 weeks! They netted an extra 7.5% on the sales price, from our initial estimates! It was a great investment all around.

Cannot recommend Homestretch enough! From A to Z, they took what could have been a stressful and complicated move out situation and made it seamless. As a local realtor, I was impressed by their professionalism, punctuality, and follow through. I will definitely be sharing my experience with them to my fellow real estate community.

Brad, Christie and their project manager Nick Have delivered exceptional service for my Real estate listings and my own personal home. They are extremely driven organized and quality people, and they surround themselves with trusted craftsman and contractors. Their ability to meet my needs as a real estate agent and help my listings hit the market with an exceptional return on investment has really made me a big fan of their service. They are filling a big need in the real estate community here in the Wilmington and Jacksonville area.

Project costs vary depending on the home’s size and condition, and on the services you choose. Projects in Wilmington usually range from $2,000 to $25,000. The average total cost of a typical HOMEstretch project is $8,000. Keep in mind there are no upfront costs for homeowners for services. Fees for the services provided are deducted from the total sales proceeds at closing.

When you meet with a HOMEstretch representative here in Wilmington, we’ll discuss our services and which would be most beneficial. During the consultation, we will discuss your specific needs and figure out which services make the most sense for you. We know getting a house market-ready can be stressful, so we'll share our local market knowledge and guide you through the process every step of the way.

We help homeowners by offering simple, neutral recommendations based on what works in the current market. The curated color palettes in our HOMEstretch Color Book are based on fresh, neutral styles that appeal to buyers. We offer different flooring tiers to fit the price point and style of your home.

Current first-time homebuyers typically aren’t eager to take on projects; they want to move in and feel at home immediately. Homes with neutral colors sell best because of their wider appeal. By focusing on walls, ceilings and floors—which make up 90% of what buyers see—we help you maximize the sales price and reduce time on the market.

No, we specialize in pre-sale home preparation as the essential step before staging. Count on HOMEstretch to handle the big improvements, like walls and floors, to provide the stager with a clean, neutral canvas.

We often work with clients who are still living in their homes. To minimize stress, we make it a priority to walk you through exactly what to expect each step of the way. In these situations, we coordinate with you on a plan to get the project done quickly with as little disruption to your daily life as possible.
