What I do · field index
From the quick fixes that pile up to getting a house listing-ready. One neighbor, one call, no runaround.
The everyday fixes that pile up around the house, handled in one visit.
I prepare your listing for sale so it shows its best on day one. Typically your realtor will provide a pre-inspection of your property. This report is usually very thorough and can be alarming to the potential new owner. I can usually address a high percentage of these issues, resolving items and showing the inspector how each one was addressed and have the report republished with far fewer reported issues.
One thing that differentiates me, especially in the property management space, is I can usually address smaller jobs with urgency. Typically the requests from the tenant are urgent, and a quick response speaks highly on your relationship with them. Sometimes smaller, one off fixes, a lot of trades won't take on, or will wait until there are multiple jobs in the area to address. It's not so much "no job is too small", but rather understanding the importance of getting issues addressed in a timely fashion to keep the tenant satisfied.
A seasonal once-over that keeps small problems from becoming expensive ones.
The guy
I'm Jon — retired from tech after 28 years, and I've spent my whole life with a high 'figure it out' factor. Now I help neighbors around Redmond with the common projects that pile up around the house, and because I keep it a one-person operation, I can charge much less than the big companies.
I've raised 3 boys at our house in Redmond with my wife of 30 years, and I spend my winters skiing and my summers on the lake. So whether it's minor repairs, replacement work, or a dump run, let me know what you need done and see if you've got a guy for that project.
