Navigating the complexities of home renovations can be a significant challenge for real estate agents, especially when unexpected change orders throw your listings off track. These changes can disrupt timelines, inflate budgets, and complicate transactions, often to the detriment of both the seller’s and the agent’s objectives.
Understanding Change Orders
Change orders in the renovation process are changes to the initial agreement of the construction contract. They can involve anything from adjusting the scope of work to changing materials or designs, typically resulting in increased costs and extended timelines. In traditional brokerage concierge services, these are a common and frustrating hurdle.
The Impact of Change Orders
An infographic reveals the staggering frequency and impact of change orders in traditional concierge services:
Increased Costs: On average, change orders increase project costs by 10-15%, directly affecting the homeowner’s potential profits and the agent’s commission.
Delayed Timelines: Each change order can add days or even weeks to a project timeline, delaying listings and potentially reducing the property's market appeal.
Stress and Frustration: Constant changes can lead to stress for both homeowners and agents, straining relationships and complicating the sale process.
