Make Ready & Renovations

Turnkey Property Prep That Protects Your Investment and Maximizes Rentability

Whether you're between tenants, prepping a newly acquired rental, or managing long-term upkeep, Navigate’s Make Ready & Renovations service is designed to take the stress off your plate—and put more rent in your pocket.

 

What Is a "Make Ready"?

A Make Ready is the process of preparing a rental property for new tenants. It typically occurs between lease terms and ensures your home is clean, code-compliant, fully functional, and market-ready.

At Navigate, we don’t just do the bare minimum. We evaluate the property from top to bottom and make expert recommendations to boost curb appeal, improve function, and reduce long-term maintenance risks.
