Renovation Review: Virtual Consulting & Advice

Make confident renovation decisions that optimize your budget and elevate your design without second-guessing your contractors or overspending.

The Renovation Review is a virtual, private consulting session with Blythe for homeowners planning a renovation who want expert, unbiased feedback before committing to costly decisions.

It’s designed for you if:

• You're taking on a major home renovation (kitchen, extension, addition, remodel)
  

• You have plans or estimates in hand from architects, contractors, or design-build teams
  

• You feel overwhelmed by conflicting input and want clarity on the next steps
  

• You want my fresh eye to help maximize design, value, and budget without overspending
  

• You’d like to bring something you saw on Blythe’s Instagram to life in your own project

After our 1-hour virtual session, you’ll walk away with expert input that could save you thousands on your renovation while helping you make design and layout decisions that look great, function well, and protect your long-term investment.

Before you spend hundreds of thousands, spend an hour with someone who’s done this dozens of times. 

You’ll appreciate this session if: 

• You’ve already spent hours (or weeks) gathering plans, but still feel unsure if they’re the right call.
  

• You’re worried about overdesigning (or under-improving) and hurting your future resale or rental value.
  

• Your contractor keeps asking for decisions you’re not ready to make.
  

• Your Pinterest board looks amazing, but how do you actually pull it off for a realistic budget?
  

• You don’t want to rely on biased input from your vendors. You want a trusted, experienced perspective from someone who has done it a lot.

I’ve bought, renovated, and sold homes in the Hamptons—growing my portfolio from one $635k property to over $8.5M in value. I’m a licensed real estate agent, an Airbnb Superhost, and a renovation consultant with deep experience helping homeowners bridge the gap between architecture, design, and investment strategy.

After our session, you’ll: 

• Walk away with clear actions tailored to your space, your budget, and your long-term goals. Whether that’s maximizing resale value, increasing STR income, or simply creating a home you love.
  
  

• Know exactly where to ask your contractor or architect if you can adjust the layout to save thousands— on things like reducing the size of an open concept passageway,  reconfiguring plumbing more efficiently, or cutting square footage in a way that preserves your design vision.
  
  

• Get Blythe’s real-world, honest input on where to splurge and where to save—such as using pre-fab materials for custom-looking built-ins, or swapping a luxury tile for a more budget-friendly version that achieves the same aesthetic.
  
  

• Understand how your decisions affect resale value or rental income. For example, skipping a tub might feel good right now, but could hurt future sale potential; or combining kids’ bedrooms in a rental could reduce income in a market where the number of bedrooms drives bookings.

• Receive a follow-up recap with clear next steps and curated links to products, materials, or inspiration mentioned on the call so you’re not left guessing what to do next.

After your Renovation Review session, you'll:

• Have a prioritized action plan that aligns with your goals, budget, and long-term vision
  

• Feel clear on which changes to make to your layout, materials, or vendor estimates
  

• Know exactly where to splurge and where to save for maximum design and investment impact
  

• Leave with a follow-up recap and links to suggested resources, materials, or product inspiration
