No plan before the first call
Most homeowners contact contractors before they have a scope. Contractors quote what they think you want and the number is always higher once the project starts.

Three places renovations go wrong
Choosing a contractor by price alone
The lowest bid wins the job 80% of the time. The lowest bid also causes the most change orders, delays, and disputes. There is a better way to choose.
No system for what comes next
Renovation has a sequence. Decisions made in the wrong order get unmade at your expense. A professional framework keeps everything in the right order.
A professional designer's playbook. Now available to homeowners.
Cristina DePina is an NCIDQThe National Council for Interior Design Qualification - the gold standard licensing exam for professional interior designers in the U.S. and Canada. Passing it requires a combination of accredited education, supervised work experience, and a rigorous multi-part exam. Designers who hold NCIDQ certification have met the highest professional benchmark in the field. It's the equivalent of passing the bar exam for lawyers.-Certified Interior Designer with 20+ years of experience and 200+ renovations and remodels completed. She built Renoversity because she kept watching homeowners make the same expensive mistakes: mistakes that were entirely preventable with the right information.

Common questions
- Renoversity is built for homeowners. You are learning how to hire, manage, and oversee contractors, not how to do the work yourself. Think of it as learning to be the CEO of your renovation. The contractors are your team. Renoversity gives you the playbook.
- None at all. Renoversity teaches professional frameworks in plain language. If you know you want to renovate but do not know where to start, this is built for you.
- Free membership gives you access to the first lesson of every course and several free tools. Pro membership unlocks everything: all courses, all tools, and all printable templates. Cancel any time.
- YouTube shows you how to swing a hammer. Renoversity teaches you how to run a project. The courses, tools, and templates are built around a professional project management framework, not individual tasks. You leave with a system, not a to-do list.
- No. Renoversity completion certificates are records of your learning, not professional licenses or industry certifications. Renoversity teaches you to manage renovations, not to perform them.
Your renovation deserves a real plan.
