How it works

Four steps to a better sale price.

Simple, transparent, completely managed by us. You focus on moving โ€” we handle everything else.

1
We assess your home

We visit your property and identify the strategic renovations that will drive the greatest return in the Auckland market.

2
We scope and agree

You receive a clear scope of work, full cost breakdown, and projected sale price uplift. You approve everything before work starts.

3
We manage it all

Our vetted network of licensed Auckland tradespeople completes the work. We project-manage everything. You don't lift a finger.

4
You sell. We settle.

Your renovated home sells for more. At settlement, Curb is repaid from proceeds โ€” and you keep the difference.

For homeowners

Sell smarter.
Not cheaper.

Most NZ homeowners drop their price to get a sale. Curb gives you a better option โ€” present your home at its best and let buyers compete.

๐Ÿ’ฐ
Zero upfront cost, always

No deposit, no progress payments, no stress. You pay nothing until settlement day โ€” automatically from your sale proceeds.

๐Ÿ”จ
We manage every trade

Builders, painters, tilers, landscapers โ€” we co-ordinate vetted, licensed professionals. You don't co-ordinate a thing.

๐Ÿ“ˆ
Every dollar earns its keep

We only spend on renovations that demonstrably improve your sale price. Strategic decisions, not cosmetic ones.

๐Ÿค
Works with your agent

Your agent stays in full control of your sale. We improve the listing โ€” they sell it. No conflicts, no confusion.

"Your home is probably worth more than buyers are offering. You just need to show them what it can become."

Better listings, higher prices

A renovated home attracts more buyers, more competition, and a stronger hammer price โ€” larger commission for you.

Fewer days on market

Well-presented homes sell faster. More time winning new listings, less time managing old ones.

Built in Auckland.
By a Kiwi.
For Kiwis.

Curb was founded by someone who has spent years in the New Zealand trades industry โ€” who understands what Auckland homes need, what adds real value here, and what Kiwi homeowners deserve.

We're not a venture-backed overseas startup testing a model in a new market. We're a local business that picks up the phone, turns up on time, and does what we say we'll do.

FAQ

Questions
answered.

Everything you need to know about how Curb works.

Do I really pay nothing upfront?+
Correct. Curb funds the entire renovation. No deposit, no progress payments, nothing while your home is on the market. The full amount is repaid at settlement from your sale proceeds โ€” automatically.
What if my home doesn't sell?+
The facility has an agreed maximum term. If the property hasn't sold within that period, standard repayment arrangements apply. We discuss all of this clearly before any work begins โ€” no surprises.
What kinds of renovations does Curb fund?+
Cosmetic and strategic renovations that improve your sale price โ€” kitchens, bathrooms, painting, flooring, landscaping, lighting, and presentation. We don't fund structural work or full rebuilds.
How much can I borrow?+
Renovation scopes start from $5,000 and can exceed $250,000 depending on your property's equity and scope required. We assess each property individually โ€” no one-size-fits-all number.
Do I need to own my home outright?+
No. You need sufficient equity โ€” not outright ownership. We assess your existing mortgage alongside the Curb facility to make sure it's within sensible parameters for both parties.
Is Curb available outside Auckland?+
Currently Auckland only. We're planning NZ-wide expansion. Get in touch and we'll notify you when we reach your region.
Is the partnership exclusive?+
Completely non-exclusive. No volume commitments, no obligations beyond the initial agreement. Refer as many or as few clients as you like.
How does the referral fee work?+
When you refer a homeowner and the property settles, your referral fee is paid automatically at settlement alongside Curb's repayment. Fixed rate, agreed upfront, zero admin on your end.
Does Curb interfere with my vendor relationship?+
Never. You remain the primary relationship. Curb manages the renovation only โ€” no involvement in pricing, marketing, or the sale itself.
How do I sign up?+
Use the contact form and select "Real estate agent." We'll reach out within 24 hours with a simple agreement. Most agents are ready to refer within a few days.
Do I need to be licensed?+
Yes. LBP for building work, current practicing licences for electrical and plumbing. We vet all contractors before adding them to our network.
When do I get paid?+
On completion milestones โ€” not at property settlement. Once the scope is completed and signed off, payment is released. No chasing, no excuses.
How much work is available?+
We're building our pipeline. We'll be honest โ€” volume is growing, not established yet. Register now and be first in line as jobs come through.
How do I join?+
Use the contact form and select "Tradesperson." Include your trade, licence details, and areas you cover in Auckland.
