1,500+ renovations completed
100+ rental doors in portfolio
Featured twice on DIY Network
Award-winning construction company
Michael Mitchell is a seasoned real estate investor with over 1,500 renovations completed in the past 15 years. Featured twice on the DIY Network, he built an award-winning construction company before growing a portfolio of more than 100 rental doors using the BRRRR method.
After years of watching investors lose money because they skipped the most critical step — defining the scope of work before getting prices — Michael built ScopeFirst to solve the problem he lived every day.
"I built this app because I was tired of seeing investors walk into a property and have no idea how to define the work. They’d get three wildly different bids and have no way to compare them. Scope first, then get numbers. That’s how you protect your margins."
Define the work before the price
Rehab Scope of Work: Questions Answered
A clear scope tells contractors what to price. Use these answers to prepare your next property walkthrough.
What is a rehab scope of work?
A rehab scope of work is a written list of repairs and improvements for a property. It identifies the location, work to perform, quantities, materials, exclusions, and open questions so contractors can price a shared set of requirements.
Does ScopeFirst set contractor prices?
ScopeFirst helps you define and document the work. Contractors provide their own prices. A scope and an estimate serve different purposes: the scope describes the job; the estimate assigns costs to it.
How do I reduce missed scope?
Walk the exterior and every room in a consistent order. Record photos, measurements, and repair decisions. Review the result by trade and mark unknown conditions for contractor follow-up before requesting bids.
What can I send to contractors?
ScopeFirst exports a PDF scope report with photos, line items, and a trade-by-trade breakdown. Send the same version to each bidder, then ask them to identify exclusions, allowances, and assumptions.
Does the app work offline?
ScopeFirst currently requires an internet connection to keep project photos and answers synced and ready to export. The app is available on iOS and Android.
Can a walkthrough find every repair?
A walkthrough documents what you can observe. Concealed conditions and specialist assessments may add work later. Record uncertainties clearly and review them with the appropriate contractor before finalizing the scope.
