Agent + Builder, aligned: fewer surprises, smarter offers, & happier buyers.
Hale Design Build partners with Engel & Völkers agents to evaluate properties before your clients buy—so they can act confidently and agents close faster.
How the partnership benefits agents & clients
For Engel & Völkers Agents
Win listings & offers with confidence: Real budget estimates and timelines reduce cold feet and renegotiations.
Shorten the cycle: Clear scope = cleaner offers, fewer inspection re-trades.
White-glove experience: Co-branded reports you can send the same week.
Protect your reputation: Clients feel informed, not overwhelmed.
For Engel & Völkers Buyers
No more guessing: What will the kitchen cost? Can we add a bath? Finish the attic?
Local know-how: North Shore permitting, historic district reviews, and coastal /weatherproofing best practices.
Plan the first year: What to do now vs. later, with phased budgets.
What Hale Delivers
Pre-Purchase Walk (60 minutes, on site)

Budget bands: Good / Better / Best with ballparks (e.g., Kitchen: $65–95k / $95–135k / $135k+)
Timeline brackets: Permit + build windows by town (e.g., Gloucester, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Beverly Farms)
Risk flags: Structure, moisture, electrical service, lead/abatement, zoning overlays
Next steps: Phased plan (what’s Day-1, Year-1, and “someday”)
