🛠️ Fix It and Sell It Program – Get More Value From Your Home Sale in Northeast Florida
Renovate Now • Pay at Closing • Increase Your Home’s Value
Are you thinking about selling your home but worried it’s not in the best condition?
You’re not alone. Many homeowners in Jacksonville, Orange Park, Middleburg, Fleming Island, Lake Asbury, and Clay County feel overwhelmed when their home needs repairs, updates, or cleaning before it hits the market. With my fix it and sell it program I can make the process easy for you.
Most agents will simply list your home “as-is” and hope for the best.
I don’t believe in that approach.
I’m Mike Schwiebert, REALTOR® with 18+ years of real estate experience and 20+ years of construction expertise. My Fix It and Sell It program is designed to help homeowners maximize their sale price — even if they don’t have cash upfront for repairs.
My goal is simple: Get More Value for your home.
⭐ What Is the Fix It and Sell It Program?
This program helps homeowners who want to sell, but whose property needs work such as:
Deferred maintenance
Curb appeal cleanup
Painting or flooring
Kitchen or bath updates
Pressure washing
Minor to major repairs
Full interior or exterior refresh
Trash-out and clean-up
HVAC, roof, or plumbing repairs
I will guide you on what improvements will increase your home’s value — and if needed, I will cover the costs upfront.
You pay NOTHING until the home sells.
🔍 Why Choosing the Right Repairs Matters
Homes that look neglected sell for significantly less.
Buyers immediately assume:
Major problems exist
The home wasn’t maintained
Expensive repairs are hiding somewhere
The seller is desperate
A little improvement goes a long way — especially in competitive markets like Jacksonville, Clay County, St. Johns County, and Northeast Florida.
Even simple changes like pressure washing, mulch, paint touch-ups, and basic repairs can add thousands of dollarsto your sale price.
And because I own pressure washing rigs, trailers, and tools — I often help with this process personally.
🏡 Real Example: How Repairs Can Multiply Your Profit
One homeowner I helped had a severely outdated and damaged property.
Walls were deteriorating, the kitchen was from the 1960s, and years of smoking left everything brown and stained.
We completed:
Full kitchen renovation
Repainting throughout
New flooring
Exterior repairs
Cleanup and pressure washing
The home was valued around $50,000 as-is.
After improvements and updates (~$30K invested), it sold for $150,000 — over double what they would have received selling “as-is.”
This is the power of the Fix It and Sell It program.
🔧 What You Can Expect From the Process
✔ Step 1 — Home Evaluation & Honest Assessment
I come to your home and provide a straightforward, honest opinion of your home’s condition and value.
This includes:
What MUST be fixed
What will increase value
What’s optional
What buyers in your neighborhood expect
I give real numbers, real advice, and real solutions — not sugar-coated answers.
✔ Step 2 — Customized Improvement Plan
We’ll decide together what repairs make sense.
I always consider:
Your timeline
Your budget (even if it’s $0)
ROI on repairs
Local market trends
Comparable sales
Your neighborhood’s buyer demand
✔ Step 3 — I Cover the Cost (If Needed)
If you don’t have the funds for repairs, I will pay upfront.
You’ll reimburse me at closing — no interest, no hidden fees.
✔ Step 4 — You Pitch In (If You Want To)
If you’re still living in the home, I may ask for a bit of sweat equity — things like decluttering or simple tasks that maximize profit.
It’s just like the renovation shows on TV:
The more you help, the more you keep.
✔ Step 5 — Market the Home for Top Dollar
Once the home is ready, I list it professionally with:
High-quality photos
Video & drone (when applicable)
Strong online exposure
Pricing backed by construction knowledge
Local market expertise
Targeted marketing to buyers
The final result?
A higher sale price and a smoother selling experience.
💰 How Repayment Works
Everything is transparent and documented.
We sign an agreement outlining costs
You pay NOTHING until the home sells
Funds are repaid at closing
My commission also comes from closing proceeds
No out-of-pocket expenses required
You get peace of mind and a much stronger financial outcome.
