Planning a home renovation? Sort out these 5 things before the work starts — it's the difference between a smooth project and a stressful one. Save this for later 👇

1️⃣ Get clear on your must-haves vs. nice-to-haves. Write two lists. When budget decisions come up mid-project (they will), you'll already know exactly where the money should go.
2️⃣ Set a real budget — then add 15–20% on top. That cushion covers the surprises hiding behind your walls: old wiring, a hidden leak, a floor that has to come up. If you never touch it, that becomes your upgrade fund.
3️⃣ Know your timeline and your deadlines. Holidays, a graduation, a new baby on the way — share the dates that matter up front so the schedule gets built around your real life.
4️⃣ Gather your inspiration. Save 8–10 photos of looks you love. A good contractor quotes tighter and builds faster when they can see what's in your head, not just hear it.
5️⃣ Ask the right questions before you hire. Will you get an itemized, written quote? Who's your point of contact, and how often will you hear from them? Can you see a finished project nearby? How they answer tells you almost everything.

Do the prep work first, and the whole project gets easier from there.
