- It's the weekend, your partner wants to paint the walls "white" and you have no idea what that means. I am here to help. Here are my 3 favorite whites: 1. Dunn Edwards - Cottage White 2. Sherwin Williams - Pure White 3. Benjamin Moore - White Dove Happy Painting
- Can I, as the designer, take credit for a $300,000 price increase? (not all of it, but some, right?) With my investor we transformed a 1980's tract home into showstopper with warm modern finishes. When our investor purchased this house they bought based on a sale price of
- 15 mins cost me thousands of dollars and days of delay Plumber left our project at 3:30 with water off and valves open, city arrives at 3:45 and turns on the water. Yep, water ran or should I say gushed in and under the house all night - 16 hours Not my day!
00:00 - Demo Day: Day 1 of 30 I'm a designer but I am also an investor with my husband. We have been remodeling, buying, selling and renting homes together for 25 years True story, I found our first home and project in 2000 My husband has driven a hard (low) budget and a strict
- New (finished) Project in LA This Spanish home was a full gut remodel. We updated the floor plan while maintaining the character of the home Natural light, warm neutrals and modern amenities I hope the buyers love it as much as I do

- My most profitable projects as a flipper was buying 2/1's over 1200 sq feet and creating a 3/2 with a primary bathroom within the existing sq footage. If you are looking for a project, look for a large 2/1 then book a call with me to help create a 3/2 and unlock the value.
- Love a good Before and After? This is the same living room, same foot print, same square footage... the difference? We vaulted the ceilings. This is a huge impact and value add for owners and investors.
- If you are going to spend thousands of dollars on new/re paint, you need to love the colors you choose. One of my services is Paint Color Selections. It starts at $300 and guarantees you love the final product. Its much cheaper than a re-paint Link in bio to schedule
- Green tones are trending! I've been using greens on projects for years. Now people are seeing how beautiful they can be when used correctly and the right green. Would you use green on your project? If you need help selecting a green, link in bio.
