Apartment Turn & Make-Ready Services

Teem coordinates the connected scopes of an apartment turn so a vacant unit moves from move-out condition to inspection-ready without your team managing four separate contractors. We work with multifamily communities, condominium properties and student housing across Tampa Bay and Central Florida.

Built for property managers. Ready for every turn.

What Teem can include in a turn

Drywall and wall preparation

01

Drywall and wall preparation

Anchor holes, nail holes, cracks, impact damage and the wall patching that has to be finished correctly before anything gets painted.

Interior painting and touch-ups

02

Interior painting and touch-ups

Full unit repaints, accent walls returned to standard, ceilings, trim and doors, or targeted touch-ups where a full repaint is not needed.

Make-ready cleaning

03

Make-ready cleaning

Turn cleaning built around occupancy rather than housekeeping, including post-paint cleanup so the unit is genuinely ready and not simply painted.

Minor agreed property corrections

04

Minor agreed property corrections

The small items that appear on a walkthrough and hold up a turn, completed within the scope agreed in the quote.

Punch-list completion

05

Punch-list completion

The final pass that closes out the remaining items before your inspection or before the next resident receives keys.

Apartment turn workflow and coordinated make-ready sequence

The turn workflow

A turn runs as a sequence, where each phase depends on the one before it. Handling those phases as one project is what keeps a unit from sitting an extra week waiting for the next trade to become available.

01

1. Scope review

We review the unit or the unit list, confirm what is included and put it in writing before anything starts.

02

2. Repair and preparation

Drywall repair, patching and surface preparation are completed first, because everything after this depends on the walls being right.

03

3. Paint

Interior painting is applied to prepared surfaces, with the coverage and finish the property standard calls for.

04

4. Clean

Make-ready cleaning follows the paint, so the unit is cleaned once, at the end, rather than cleaned and then dirtied again.

05

5. Punch list

Remaining agreed items are closed out and the unit is reviewed against the approved scope.

06

6. Ready for inspection or move-in

The unit is handed back to your team ready for the next step, with a clear record of what was completed.

Apartment turn timing and unit readiness

Turn timing and capacity

Turn time depends on unit condition, the services included, volume, access and schedule. The most useful thing you can send us is the deadline you are working toward, because that tells us how the sequence has to be built.

Single-unit turns

A standard single-unit turn combining drywall, paint and cleaning is scheduled as one continuous sequence rather than as separate visits spread across a week.

Multi-unit turns

Interior unit painting and repair

01

Multi-unit turns

Send the unit list, the typical condition and your target dates, and we will quote the batch as a schedule. Multi-unit work is priced on the actual scope and volume rather than by multiplying a single-unit price.

Hallways and shared interior areas

02

Recurring turn programs

For communities and management companies with continuous turn activity, the process can be structured so your team submits units as they come available under agreed scope definitions and pricing, without restarting the quoting conversation every time.

Why combining the scopes matters

Most of the delay in a turn comes from the space between trades. The drywall contractor finishes on Tuesday, the painter has another job until Friday, the cleaner cannot be scheduled until the following week, and a unit that needed four days of work sits empty for twelve. One team running the full sequence removes most of that gap, and it also removes the question of who is responsible when something is not right.

24-hour follow-through on completed scope

If something within Teem's completed scope does not meet the agreed standard, notify the team and we will address that covered item within 24 hours. The commitment applies to the work Teem agreed to complete.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Combining those scopes under one team is the core of the turn service.

Yes. Send the unit list, typical condition and your target dates, and the batch is quoted as a schedule.

It depends on the unit condition, the services included, volume and access. Tell us your deadline and we will tell you whether it is realistic before you commit to it.

No. Work that requires a licensed electrical or plumbing trade falls outside Teem's scope, and we will say so rather than take it on.
