Fix It Now, Pay When You Sell
Homes that need work often lose buyers before they ever schedule a showing — but coming up with the cash or coordinating contractors shouldn't be what holds you back. Long & Foster Lift funds up to $50,000 in pre-listing repairs and updates, with nothing due until closing. Diana identifies the improvements that will move the needle on price and timeline, then manages the process from there.
Get Market-Ready — Without the Upfront Cost
Lift removes the “we should fix this before we list” dilemma. Whether it’s a fresh coat of paint or a full pre-listing refresh, the work is completed before your home goes to market, and the cost comes out of your proceeds at closing — not your bank account today. Diana builds the strategy: which updates draw more buyer interest, shorten your time on market, and deliver the strongest return.
