Share some renovations pics if you have any, would love to see them!!!!

Thanks!! This is an east coast property, don’t own anything on the West Cost, yet!!
But will be sure to hit you up, we need to grab coffee!!
Indeed,
Nowadays, I have most days during brunch time free, and Fridays and Sundays anytime. Talk to you soon, Filip
