NARI Home Tour 2012

6-03-2012   The 8th annual NARI remodeling Home Tour was a big deal! 166 folks got to spend time with me walking through a 1911 era home that was doubled in size and renovated several times in the past few years by Levco, in a very tasteful way.

One of my favorite moments was when a woman standing in the new part of the home said “Now remind me … where did the old house end and the new part begin?” I reached out and hugged her, “that is the biggest compliment any remodeler could ever receive!”

The other favorite was when a woman said ” I love how you blended the old with the new, this does not scream NEW to me.”
