Remodeling 101 Seminar
Remodeling 101 Seminar Saturday April 4th
Learn What To Expect Before You Start
Building on the momentum or the 10th Anniversary Tour, the Home Builders Association Remodelers Council is hosting a free, in-depth seminar entitled “Remodeling 101” to be held Saturday, April 4th, 2009 from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm at the JMG Conference Center at the Home Builders Association Building, 15555 SW Bangy Road, Lake Oswego.
This spring’s seminar will focus on several aspects of the remodeling process from financing, bidding the project, and what to expect before, during and after the construction. Industry professionals featured are Tracy Hankins of Hankins Construction who is also KEX’s own Mr. Fixit, Mitch Stanley of Stanley Home Renovation & Design who is also chair of the Remodelers Council, Jim Field IV of Progressive Builders Northwest, and Theresa Springer of Pacific Residential Mortgage.
In addition to displays by the presenters, ten other remodelers and several industry partners will be on hand to exhibit their work or products and answer questions regarding today’s construction climate and emerging trends. According to the National Association of Home Builders & Remodelers (NAHBR) “Remodeling still rests on a solid foundation with homes in a continuous need of maintenance, upgrades, repairs, and adjustments to meet the nation’s changing preferences and lifestyles.”

Thanks to all who came out to see our Tour home!
We found out (after the fact), that the directions given out from tour houses near us to our home were incorrect and some of you had quite a hard time finding us!
We enjoyed so very much being able to show you our work and answer the many great questions you had.
We look forward to getting together with many of you in your homes in the coming months.
First Day of The Tour of Remodeled Homes
While we always hope for good weather for the Tour of Remodeled Homes Event, we also realize that this is Oregon and we need to have a backup plan for RAIN. Our backup today was the garage of our Tour Home and it's a good thing we had it! Set up in the garage of our Tour home was the KEX Mr. Fix It Show. We were honored to have Dave Ewing, the original Mr. Fix It, here this morning doing a live broadcast of the show. Mitch was able to sit in on the show this morning and answer questions from callers and talk about the Tour and our featured project. Mitch also was able to explain to listeners how a Design-Build Company such as ours works with clients from the design phase through to the building process creating a seamless process that ultimately results in a more controlled result in every aspect.
Mitch really enjoyed his time with Dave as he is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor!
Joining us today was Angela Todd of Angela Todd Designs. Angela is part of our design team who is able to disseminate and capture the desires and tastes of our clients enabling her to create unique and personalized spaces that fit the clients tastes and home perfectly.
