How do we BID?
Property Preservation Bids
Bidding is a very tricky task which not only involves submitting your property preservation bids in a timely manner but also needs to be fairly accurate and realistic. The property preservation bids submitted by RPR services are determined after careful consideration of all the various factors including the inner and outer workings of a home and current market rates for foreclosure clean-ups as well as property maintenance and preservation. Besides these, there are a number of factors that we take into consideration while producing bids. Some of them are as follows:
• The complex nature of the job•
• The detailed verbiage to justify the bid•
• The vicinity in which the property is situated•
• The different kind of services we would be providing at the property•
1. EXTERIOR PROBLEMS
Here’s a list of some of the Exterior Problems that are included while carrying out a Bidding procedure:
Roof Problems
While most roof or chimney problems can be identified by solely looking at it from the ground, it is challenging to spot some irregularities unless inspected meticulously. These issues can cost you substantial expenses if neglected for a longer time. Cracks in shingles, shingles slipping out of the place, bad patches, and many more are some of the issues that are promptly spotted by our representatives and immediate repairing bid is done. Properties with nasty roofs can be extremely hazardous for the maintenance of the property.

Window Damages
Windows or Doors of old houses are often patched, which may not seem that wicked from a distance, but can resemble horrible or awful when we glance at it more sharply. Similarly, rot can be identified merely by poking the windows or touching the door with your finger, which we identify right through a photo. Sometimes, these damages can lead you to a severe expense. To avoid these issues, we first analyze it and then provide you with an accurate bid for the services required to resolve the concern.
Water Management
Water management can be a huge task, as it requires nearly inspecting gutters, downspout extensions, fixing of uneven slopes, checking the corrosion of pipes, among other things. On the other hand, improper water draining can sometimes cause serious leakage problems in the basement. Wet basement generally triggers moisture problems in the long run. Water intrusion can leave nasty stains, which becomes mold afterwards on the walls while causing the foundation to weaken and this damages the property in a very compelling way.
Lawn Care
Identifying the height of the Grass, understanding the nature of the trees/shrubs, trimming of unwanted scrap, removing the garden waste, and carefully understanding the depths by examining the photos are some of the major secrets to our fastidious bidding procedures. According to HUD guidelines, grass trimming should be done in a two-week gap and should not be trimmed more than two inches. If the grass size is exceeded by four inches, then you can get the approval for the same.
Pathway Damages
Pathway damages are the issues that usually are not the initial issues, they are developed by some outlying concerns. These damages are resolved at the time when lawn preservation is done. They are not severe damages but still not to be neglected as it can cause trip hazards. Pathway damages comprise the parking space whose condition is not maintained, walkways where flooring is not in a proper state, driveways whose path may not be the plain floor that can damage the vehicle and many other parts where the basic repairing is expected.

2. INTERIOR PROBLEMS
Interior property inspection requires an even more detailed outlook. It is aimed at keeping the potential buyers updated about any defects that can prove to be disastrous in the long run. Some of the items that are inspected in this category are as follows:
Mold/Discoloration
The discoloration is the water stain or patch that is seen on the wall or the ceiling and these patches are nothing but mold that appear at the place where the moisture level is high as compared to other parts of that area. These spots sometimes stain the particular area and can spread a fungal infection to the people who come in contact with those spots. Mold needs quick remediation to avoid environmental hazards as they are very infectious to health of the people and also it multiplies rapidly.
Kitchen Issues
The kitchen is that part of the property which are highly prone to incidents and needs peculiar concern during the maintenance. Kitchen issues include broken or missing cabinets, appliances, equipment, sink and many other essentials that are considered during the maintenance check-up. A well-preserved kitchen can avoid uncertainties that can create an unhealthy environment. We provide the complete report of the condition of your kitchen with the solution that can be used to neglect the issues that damage the overall peace of the property.
Floor Issues
Floor issues generally include broken tiles, floor wallpapers, unfit or uneven flooring, etc. These issues may look trivial ones, but they may drive you to persuasive consequences. Flooring issues also include water intrusion that can leave nasty stains causing the foundation to fragile and this damages the property. These can be treated more efficiently if redeemed at proper time and if we leave without repairs, it can be the path to severe problems. So it’s necessary to repair these damages on time and with proper guidance.
Plumbing Damages
Plumbing damages are solely related to ravage of water supplies like pipes, taps, boilers, etc. These supplies get rusted on the surface resulting in wastage of water, and to avoid these issues, a thorough inspection of these supplies is done and then they are galvanized to disconnect the consolidation of the moisture with the supplies. Rusting in these supplies is caused by an irregular accumulation of oxygen (O2) and water (H2O) that needs a high level of expert maintenance regularly.
Electrical Issues
The electric supply is the most vital part of the property and needs to maintain accurately. Electrical issues include damaged circuits, broken switches, flickering lights, loose plugs, uncapped wires etc. These issues can be harmless, or they may create a very hazardous situation. In either condition, it is our responsibility to procure these issues on a prior basis as these problems may not look eternal, but in the long run, they can be the foundation for the consequential forthcoming problems.
