Real EstateClient Management4HighAgent$ implied

Real estate agent forced to personally finance and manage home repairs for a seller who won't compromise on price or contribute any funds, creating financial risk with uncertain sale.

No platform exists to pre-qualify sellers' willingness to invest in home prep, or to facilitate third-party financing for pre-sale repairs without agent capital at risk.

A platform that funds and manages pre-sale repairs without agent personal liability

App Concept

SellerPrep Finance

A platform that connects agents with lenders offering short-term, no-interest repair loans secured against future home sale proceeds. Agents can create a scope of work, get bids, and fund repairs without personal cash—while protecting their commission.

Key Features

Scope builder with contractor bidding integration
Short-term repair loan origination (0% interest, repaid at closing)
Agent dashboard to track project milestones and disbursements
Seller consent and credit check workflow

Target Users: Residential real estate agents (especially those representing sellers of homes needing condition improvements) in the US, working with listings $500k-$3M

Revenue Model: Per-loan origination fee (e.g. 2-3% of loan value), plus a small monthly SaaS subscription for agents ($29/mo)
