About us

Home renovation is a cumulative experience.  The more you do it, the more you learn.  More than just about dealing with the ‘technical’ aspects of construction, it’s equally important to take into account the impact to your home’s utility, value, saleability, & long term maintainability.  Each decision you make (and there are plenty of them) will impact the outcome of your project and your enjoyment down the road.

Some of the expertise and training I bring to you to help in your success include:

• Experience working alongside licensed carpenters, electricians, plumbers, HVAC installers, and numerous other trades in dozens of rehab projects, ranging from bathroom remodels to room additions, basements to attics, 

• Managing renovation projects from initial design to final inspection,

• Working with and managing service providers, from initial proposals to work completion,

• Being a formally trained and licensed Home Inspector, conducting hundreds of home inspections for new home buyers, existing homeowners, and insurance companies, 

• Real estate market experience as a licensed Real Estate Broker in NC and Florida, with 20+ years of residential real estate experience

I am, and have always been, committed to my clients’ success which I achieve through knowledge, expertise, empathy, and effective communication. 

The sheer number of details involved in a home renovation project can be daunting.  From selecting materials and scheduling deliveries, to qualifying vendors and coordinating work schedules, every little thing matters!!!  Having a handle on all the ‘administrative’ details is a huge success factor for a home renovation project.

Anyone who has managed a household with 4 active kids knows that it takes organization, attention to detail, a ‘6th sense’ about scheduling, and stamina to make it all work.  Did I mention that I also helped build a successful real estate brokerage?  Well, the kids are all grown up and I’m happy to be putting my renovation expertise and extensive real estate experience to work as a Home Renovation Advisor.  

In addition to motherhood and real estate, my expertise extends to:

• Managing complex situations with multiple vendors,

• Interior design & decor coordination

• Functional design

• Planning & Negotiating

Like my partner / husband Steve, I am completely focused on my clients’ happiness and success.
