Why Property Managers Call The Apartment Turnovers

You hear the date in writing

Every walkthrough is confirmed by text with the day, time and address, and the estimate follows within 24 to 48 hours.

Done means the list is empty

We walk the punch list with you or your manager before the unit goes back to leasing.

Your spec, every unit

Tell us your wall color, plank and checklist one time. Each unit after that is held to the same spec.

Before You Send Us a Unit

What property managers ask before they hand us a unit.

Will the unit be ready on move in day?

Every scope names the ready date, so leasing can advertise it. Book the walkthrough when the move out date is set, not when the keys come back. How long does apartment turnover take.

Will you go quiet after booking?

You get a text with the day, time and address. Phones are answered 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM every day. Later messages get a reply during those hours.

Will the invoice come in over the quote?

No. You get a written price 24 to 48 hours after the walkthrough, and work starts only when you approve it. Hidden damage is shown to you and priced before we go on. How we run every turnover.

Who deals with the debris?

Debris removal and how the unit and hallway are left each day go in the scope. We do not do cleaning, so your cleaners go in last.

The Turn Year Around DC

November to February. The quiet months. The DC housing market slows over the holidays, and the average first freeze in Washington is around November 12. A unit vacant over winter is the one to give the repaint or floor you put off in July.

March and April. Notices to vacate start arriving, and DC home listings peak in March. Walk the units that will turn in summer and budget each one. The turnover planner does the math from the rent.

May to September. Turn season. Moves peak in August, and because leases end on the last day of the month, the work arrives in a wave at month end. May to July are also the wettest months in DC, so check top floor and lower level ceilings.

October. A smaller fall wave of moves, as the DC market picks up again after the August lull. Tropical storm rain around the September peak of hurricane season leaves stains that show up weeks later. See ceiling repair.

Questions About Working With The Apartment Turnovers

Who do you work for?⌄
Apartment communities, property managers, landlords, investors and rental property owners.
What do apartment turnover services include?⌄
Everything a vacant unit needs between leases, on one written scope: the move-out walkthrough, wall and ceiling repairs, paint, flooring, doors, trim, fixtures and the punch list. See what the turnover covers →
Why hire one apartment turnover contractor instead of separate trades?⌄
Most turnovers need five or six trades. With one contractor the whole unit sits on one scope with one ready date, and paint does not start until the walls under it are finished, so no room gets painted twice. How we run a full turn →
What is a unit turn?⌄
A unit turn, also called an apartment turn or tenant turnover, covers everything a vacant unit needs before the next lease starts: patched walls, fresh paint, floor repairs, working doors and hardware. We walk the unit, write one scope and close every item on it. Book a unit turn →
When is make-ready enough?⌄
When the unit is basically sound and only needs cosmetic work: touch-up paint, a few hardware items, a caulk line. Wall damage, a full repaint or new floors make it a full turnover. Send your make-ready checklist and we price only the lines the unit fails. Apartment make-ready →
How long until the unit is rent ready?⌄
Days for a make-ready on a sound unit. A week or more for a heavy turn with wall damage, a repaint and new floors, because each coat of compound and primer has to dry before the next stage. The written scope comes with a ready date. Get the unit rent-ready →
What does an apartment turnover cost?⌄
Zego's 2026 industry survey puts a full multifamily turn at about $4,000 once lost rent, make-ready, cleaning and leasing are counted. Those are market figures, not our price. Your unit is priced on its own, in writing, after a walkthrough. Read the apartment turnover cost guide →
Do you handle rental turnovers for houses?⌄
Yes. A rental house carries a longer list than an apartment, so we scope and price it room by room. Rental house turnovers →
Do you do cleaning?⌄
No. We finish the repairs so your cleaning team can go in last.
