About This Course
A well-planned renovation is a different experience entirely. Fewer surprises, cleaner contractor conversations, and a budget that actually holds. Part 1 gives you the framework to get there.
You will finish this course with a documented scope, a budget built to survive surprises, and a space plan that makes every contractor conversation faster and more productive.
What you'll be able to do by the end:
- Identify the five planning failures that blow budgets and extend timelines before they happen to you
- Set a budget with a target, a ceiling, and a contingency so surprises stay manageable
- Measure your space correctly and organize your inspiration down to 6 to 8 focused images
- Separate your needs from your wants and document both as a written scope brief
