Most BINSR companies advertise the same three words: fast, free, easy. But when you actually compare them, real differences show up — and those differences decide whether your repairs get done right and your deal closes on time. We'd rather earn your trust by telling you exactly what to look for, even the questions that are tough on us.
The 8 things that actually matter
- A licensed Arizona general contractor. Ask for the ROC number and verify it at roc.az.gov. A GC can legally and competently quote every trade. A handyman can't take a list over $1,000 or one that needs a permit.
- Paint and drywall included. Some shops leave these off as "priced separately" so the headline number looks low. Make sure the quote is complete.
- A complete, itemized quote. Line-by-line, keyed to the BINSR, not a vague lump sum.
- 24-hour turnaround. The seller has only 5 days to respond. A 48-hour quote eats most of your window.
- No quote fee. Some companies charge $75 to $125 just to look. Plenty don't charge at all.
- Pay-at-close (where it fits). Helpful on qualifying jobs, but it's subject to escrow and lender approval, so treat any "always $0 down" promise with caution.
- Lender- and title-ready documentation. Clean invoices and completion docs that FHA, VA, and conventional files accept.
- Real, verifiable reviews. Look for genuine Google reviews, not just a "5.0" with no detail.

Frequently asked questions
What should I look for in a BINSR repair company?
A licensed Arizona GC (verify the ROC #), a complete quote that includes paint and drywall, 24-hour turnaround, no quote fee, pay-at-close where available, lender- and title-ready docs, and real reviews.
Do BINSR repair companies charge for a quote?
Some charge $75 to $125, sometimes credited if you proceed. Others, including BINSR Builders, quote free with no item cap.
Why does paint and drywall being included matter?
Some companies leave them off as "priced separately," so the number looks low and the real cost shows up later. A complete quote avoids surprises and is easier to respond to on the BINSR.
