Building Your Dream Home – Pt. 1 Review
On Thursday 4/8 we kicked off our three-part series on Building Your Dream Home, in partnership with the Financial Times.
The series began with a discussion about how to select property and assemble a team, including finding a broker, architect, general contractor, landscape architect, interior designer, and others to help you realize your vision.
If you haven’t yet registered, there is still time to catch episodes two and three on the 15th and 22nd April – please RSVP here.
