What is a Renovation Mentor, and how can I help you?

Here's a recent example.

Alan was getting prices of $190,000 to $210,000 for renovations to his home, which he thought were excessive. He decided to be his own general contractor, be he realized he couldn't do it alone. He called me for help.

I put together a trade list for him, along with a schedule of when the tradespeople would be needed. I reviewed the quotes from the various trades and gave Alan my recommendations.

Alan supervised the work himself, occasionally calling me for help on technical issues, which I helped him resolve. In the end, Alan spent, including my fee, $75,000 to $80,000 less than the prices he got from the general contractors.

No homeowner starts a renovation expecting to end up in a disaster, but disasters do happen all too often. The problem is that most homeowners don't see the disaster warning signs before it's too late. Can you honestly say that you would? However I do. Because of my knowledge and experience, you WILL have a stress-free renovation, and save some money too.
