Renovations at Woodward Property Group are handled in-house through our division, Woodward Renovations Inc. — covering kitchens, baths, basements, decks, exterior and interior painting, and flooring across Metro Atlanta. Because renovation lives under the same roof as property management and investor services, the team that scopes the work is connected to the team that leases and manages the property, so turns are faster and nothing falls between contractor and manager.
That in-house model is the whole point. Woodward Renovations Inc. grew out of founder Michael Woodward Sr.'s hands-on background in the trades, and it remains the division that lets the firm act as a true one-stop shop: buy, renovate, lease, and manage without handing the owner off to an outside contractor in the middle of a project.
Rent-Ready: The condition a rental must reach before it is marketed — clean, safe, fully functional, and free of deferred maintenance — so it shows well, leases quickly, and protects the owner from move-in disputes.
What renovation work does Woodward handle?
Woodward Renovations Inc. handles the full range of residential renovation and rehab work that keeps single-family homes, condos, and townhomes competitive and valuable, including but not limited to:
- Kitchens — cabinets, counters, fixtures, and full remodels.
- Bathrooms — updates and full renovations.
- Basements — finishing and conversions to add usable, rentable space.
- Decks — repair and replacement.
- Painting — interior and exterior.
- Flooring — replacement and refinishing.
The same crews handle the smaller, unglamorous work that protects a property between tenants — drywall repair, trim and door replacement, fixture and hardware swaps, and the punch-list items that turn a tired unit back into one that shows well. Whether the job is a single-room update or a whole-house rehab, it is scoped against the goal: resale for a flip, market rent for a rental, or a clean handoff on a turnover.
Why does in-house renovation matter?
When renovation is in-house, the budget, scope, and schedule stay connected to the people executing them. An owner working with separate vendors has to translate between a contractor who doesn't know the rental target and a manager who didn't price the work — and the gaps between them are where timelines slip and money leaks. Here, the renovation estimate is built by the same organization that will lease or sell the finished property, so the scope is matched to what the market actually rewards rather than to a generic bid. For an investor, that continuity compresses holding time and removes the most common point of failure in a value-add deal.
How does a renovation project work?
Most projects move through the same four stages, whether it's a rent-ready turn or a full flip rehab:
Walk-through & scope
We assess the property's condition and define the work against your goal — resale value, market rent, or a clean turnover.
Estimate
You get a scoped budget priced by the crew that will do the work, so there are no surprise change orders driven by a vendor who never saw the property.
Renovate
Coordinated crews handle the trades in sequence to keep the project moving and minimize the days a unit sits offline.
Hand off
The finished property goes straight to marketing and leasing — or to resale — without a second hand-off to a different company.
How do renovations increase a property's value?
Renovations increase value in two ways: they let a property command stronger market rent or resale price, and they reduce the deferred-maintenance problems that drive turnover and emergency repairs. Dated finishes quietly cap what a home can achieve, while a well-scoped renovation — especially during a vacant turnover, when the unit is already offline — can lift both rent and resale value at once. The discipline is to renovate to the standard of the comparable properties that set the target, and no further: over-improving a mid-market home rarely earns its cost back. For investors pursuing fix-and-flip or value-add and BRRRR strategies on a buy-and-hold, accurate renovation scope is the foundation of the whole deal.
Who is renovation work for?
Renovation supports every kind of owner Woodward works with. Flippers need a rehab priced and executed fast enough to protect their margin. Buy-and-hold investors need rent-ready condition and value-add work that raises achievable rent. Existing management clients need reliable turnovers between tenants, so a vacancy becomes a few weeks rather than a few months. And owners who simply have a tired property need one accountable team to bring it back to standard. Because the renovation arm shares an office with property management and investor services, any of those paths can flow into ongoing management without starting over with a new company.

How does Woodward compare to managing your own renovation?
Running a rehab yourself means owning every risk in the project — scope, budget, schedule, and the contractors who drive all three. The table below compares handling it on your own with putting it in the hands of Woodward Renovations Inc.
| Factor | Self-Managing the renovation | Woodward Property Group |
|---|---|---|
| Scope & budget control | Bids drift into change orders as surprises surface, and overruns come straight out of your margin. | Work is scoped against your goal up front and priced by the crew that performs it, so the budget holds. |
| Contractor management | You source, schedule, and chase separate trades, and a no-show on one stalls the whole job. | In-house crews through Woodward Renovations Inc. are coordinated under one accountable team. |
| Schedule & holding time | Gaps between trades stretch the timeline, extending vacancy and holding costs. | Crews run the trades in sequence to keep the unit moving and turn faster to rent or sell. |
| Quality & rent/resale impact | Uneven finishes and over- or under-improving for the area cap what the property can return. | Renovated to the standard of the comparable sales or rentals that set your target — no further. |
| Your time & effort | You manage the whole project — walk-throughs, decisions, and punch lists — on top of everything else. | One accountable team handles scope through hand-off, straight into leasing or resale. |
Frequently asked questions about renovations
What kinds of renovations does Woodward Renovations Inc. handle?
Kitchens, bathrooms, basements, decks, interior and exterior painting, and flooring, plus the drywall, trim, fixture, and punch-list work that brings a single-family home, condo, or townhome back to rent-ready or resale condition.

Which renovations add the most value?
Kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, paint, and curb appeal usually return the most. The key is renovating to the standard of the comparable sales or rentals that set your target, rather than over-improving for the neighborhood.
