PREPP was born during a season of transition. At the end of 2024, Corey began exploring the idea of building a business alongside family and enlisted longtime friend Kent Adams to help search for opportunities to buy or start. While that original venture took shape, it ignited Corey’s entrepreneurial drive after nearly 30 years in homebuilding and ultimately led to the decision to step away from his role leading a local homebuilding company to pursue something new.

The idea for PREPP came unexpectedly while walking a home for a friend to discuss window replacements and general updates. As the conversation shifted to whether the home would become a rental or go on the market, a simple list of “things to do before listing” began to form — and with it, the realization that this overwhelming pre-listing phase was a problem Corey had seen countless times before. After decades of helping buyers prepare their homes to sell and hearing agents talk about the chaos of coordinating repairs, paint, cleaning, and multiple contractors, the path became clear: create a single, trusted solution that makes getting a home ready to sell simpler, calmer, and far less stressful. PREPP became that solution.
