Preparing a Rental Property for New Tenants
A structured make-ready list keeps turnovers from slipping.
Do a documented walkthrough
Photograph every room before work is scheduled. Photos give you a record and give the contractor context for the repair list.
Build the make-ready list
Most turnover lists in San Antonio rentals include a familiar set of items.
- Wall patching and touch-ups
- Door alignment and lock hardware
- Blinds and window coverings
- Cabinet and drawer hardware
- Loose fixtures and accessories
Schedule with margin
Contractor availability, materials and the size of the list all affect timing. Booking with a few days of margin before the move-in date reduces pressure on everyone.
Getting a quote
When you are ready, submit your project details and a local independent contractor will review the request. Availability, scope, materials, permits, required qualifications and pricing are confirmed by that contractor.
