Bryan's Renos

"If you want something you've never had, you have to do something you've never done."

- Thomas Jefferson

Massive Action

Susie and I recognized that we were not on target for our retirement goals. We decided it was time to take "massive action".

We thought about what strengths we had beyond our current income. I suggested that Susie was an amazing designer and styler, and she suggested that I did an amazing job remodeling our own home. So, we started flipping homes together.

Is there such a thing as too much shiplap?

No southern California renovation is complete without shiplap. I can't help it. I can't get enough shiplap, especially if the rehab is near the ocean.

Painting changes everything!

Updating an older home? Susie taught me that there is a psychology behind the colors. Creating a calming and stress free environment is the goal. You can even make a room seem bigger than it is. For example, painting this yellow ceiling white raised the visual roof.

Flooring is not optional

Upgraded flooring can increase the property’s value. It’s often one of the first things buyers notice, and high-quality flooring can be a strong selling point.
