Renovation Sells Launches InstantBid Platform for Instant Kitchen Renovation Estimates
Renovation Sells has introduced InstantBid, a groundbreaking tool that provides homeowners and real estate agents with immediate, accurate kitchen renovation cost estimates using iPhone Pro scanning technology, addressing the industry's transparency challenges.

Renovation Sells, a national renovation franchise that manages design, construction, and financing under one roof, has launched InstantBid, a consumer-ready platform that delivers quick and accurate kitchen renovation estimates through iPhone Pro scans. Developed in collaboration with RENDR, InstantBid represents a first-of-its-kind tool offering homeowners and real estate agents real-time renovation cost projections powered by LiDAR technology and backed by Renovation Sells' nationwide project database.
The platform's significance lies in its ability to source costs for material and labor from thousands of completed projects in over 35 franchise locations, providing proven pricing that homeowners and agents can trust. Amanda Valente, Co-Founder of Renovation Sells, explained that InstantBid addresses a fundamental industry challenge where homeowners typically lack clarity about true renovation costs. "Now they can get clear, upfront pricing in minutes, right on their phone, without ever having to call a contractor," Valente stated, emphasizing how this transparency gives homeowners confidence to plan and make smarter renovation decisions.
The operational process involves users downloading the RENDR app, providing contact information and the project address, then following guided steps to scan the kitchen with an iPhone Pro. Within minutes, users receive an instant renovation estimate covering updates such as cabinet refinishing, backsplash, and countertops. Following the scan, a local Renovation Sells team member follows up by email to answer questions and discuss next steps, ensuring the experience maintains personal and local support despite the technological automation.
For real estate professionals, the platform offers substantial value in client service capabilities. Kevin Van Eck, Licensed Realtor with Maverix Advisory Group, noted that "InstantBid is a resource that enables me to deliver immediate value to my clients. It empowers sellers to make informed decisions that attract more buyers, while positioning me as a trusted advisor focused on maximizing their return." This dual functionality for both homeowners and real estate agents positions InstantBid as a transformative tool in the renovation and real estate markets.
The broader implications for the renovation industry are significant, as InstantBid represents a shift toward greater transparency and accessibility in cost estimation. By pairing advanced technology with a trusted local network, Renovation Sells is redefining what homeowners and agents can expect from the renovation process. The platform's development aligns with the company's franchise model that blends national efficiencies with seamless local execution, further streamlining the traditionally complex renovation process.
