Working in both real estate and property management in Central Park, it’s crucial to have a solid roster of home professionals we can call on for our clients. Over 13 years working in the neighborhood, we’ve built up a solid list of trusted contractors! And here at Focus Real Estate, we have a new series where we share them with you—the folks we work with over and over again. (And in case you wondered—we don’t get any financial benefit from these recommendations. We also can’t be responsible for the service quality, pricing, or outcomes, even though these contractors have been great for us.) Here’s our second post in the series!
When you’re preparing to sell your house, you want to make it look as clean, bright, and fresh as possible—without spending a ton of money or disrupting your life. The quickest, most cost-effective, and most impactful way to do that is with paint. It’s staggering how much of a difference a fresh, well-done coat with no chips makes! That difference shows both in the listing photos and when potential buyers walk through and get a feel for the place.
As a Realtor and as someone who turns over properties that we manage, I’ve found it’s crucial to have a relationship with a painter who is reliable and skilled. Carlos and his brother Christian from ZBK Painting have been some of our go-to painters for nearly 15 years. I always trust them to do great work, have fair pricing and take excellent care of my clients’ homes. Plus, they’re always friendly and easy to work with!
So as part of our series where we share our top contractor’s information, I’m letting you know about Carlos! He’s not just a talented painter—we always see crisp lines and undetectable patching—but can do all kinds of high-impact work around your house, whether you’re selling or just refreshing your home for your own benefit.
Check out the video at the end of this post, where I chat with Carlos and discuss the potential jobs you could take off your “to do” list, including:
- Exterior painting
- Interior painting
- Fence staining
- Cabinet painting
- Small drywall patch/paint jobs
- Banister staining
- Garage floor epoxy
