Planning a home renovation? 🏡🛠️
Don’t let these common contractor hiring mistakes turn your dream project into a nightmare!

🧐 Skipping the research phase.
Meet with multiple candidates and educate yourself on best practices surrounding your project.

💰 Choosing based solely on price.
Consider experience, reputation, and the quality of materials they’ll use.

🕵️‍♀️ Neglecting to confirm credentials & insurance.
Verify claims and check references to ensure you’re hiring a qualified professional.

📝 Proceeding without a written agreement.
Outline the scope of work, payment schedule, and any warranty information.

💸 Paying too much upfront.
A reasonable deposit is standard, but tie the remaining payments to project milestones.

🚧 Failing to get necessary permits.
Make sure your contractor handles all the paperwork to avoid fines and safety violations.

🚩 Ignoring red flags after the project has started.
Address any concerns promptly and professionally, and seek legal advice if issues persist.

If looking to know if what you're adding to your home adds value prior to listing it for sale, we'd be happy to chat about what renovations will help increase a sales price vs what adds value to you as you live in the home.

The perfect Mother’s Day!
These two took me to biscuits & gravy, got me chocolate covered strawberries & flowers. After that, came home where Moon and I decided it would be a great day for a nap 😴

The Penny in San Luis Obispo is a very cool spot. The weather could not have been more perfect and did a FABULOUS job organizing our Modern Broker Coastal party. 👏👏👏
