 Hi, I'm Bruce Case with Case Design Remodeling. I'm excited today to share with you some best practices if you're considering renovating your home. Remodeling is a big investment, and it's something you want to do once, and you want to do right, and you don't want to make the wrong decisions. A lot of people are tempted to focus on the budget for this specific renovation, but think more holistically about your home and what you think is smart to invest over the life that you'll be in that home in terms of return on investment. Take it to the budgeting process as well and the partner that you're working with to develop that master plan should be able to talk you through budgeting. The next step is to get inspired. Think about yourself in the space. Go to magazines, go to websites, find things that inspire you to refine your vision, but also show you can share that vision and discuss it with family members, with loved ones, and good friends. The next step is to find a team of remodeling experts that brings architectural and interior design specialists, but also bring tools on how to communicate those in ways that everyone can understand. Because at the end of the day, remodeling isn't just about a project, it's about you, your family, and your home.
