Too bad this offer is not closer to home for me.  I've walked into many interiors that could use an overhaul!

What fun!  What a great opportunity for interior designers to get some exposure....thanks for sharing this!

Leah - I know I was thinking of which past clients could use this.  But they would have to also believe it is an interior disaster or you've just lost a client. lol

Barbara - You're welcome!  This would also be great for Realtors who have past clients they are close with.  It would be great exposure for the Realtor and a great redesigned home for the client.

I'm laughing hysterically at your comment about the homeowner's believing it's an interior disaster.  I was in a single family home once where the homeowner had installed a urinal in the bathroom.  He was obviously very proud and waiting for my reaction.  "Well, that's so convenient for you" was about the best I could do.  One woman's disaster is another man's gold!

Colette -  I've heard of mancaves offering urinals behind a saloon style door but a urinal in a common bathroom? If only your reaction were on camera lol!

Andi - Too bad this wasn't extended to Los Angeles county because then I could recommend sooo many homes.  For what it's worth, most of the homes that my borrowers end up buying are interior decorating disasters.  I'm always so amazed at what my borrowers can do with a little time, energy and a lot of sweat equity.  Everytime I go to a house warming party, I love seeing all the stuff that they've done since they closed escrow months earlier.

Do you think the SF & SC valley would qualify?

Hi Donne, as long as it is within 60 miles of LA you can recommend the home and homeowner for the makeover! :)  SF and SC are too far.

Andi - Darn!!!  I just recently closed a couple of transactions where the properties that my borrowers purchased were absolute throw backs to a whole other era.  One had dark wood paneling in almost every room with shag carpet and linolium all over the house (that's the one in Santa Clarita valley).  The other one (in San Fernando valley) has different floral wallpaper, including borders, in every single room.  Also have several different colored (green, red, blue, etc...) carpet all over the house. 

Don't even get me started on the all ancient appliances and funky formica countertops all over each house.  These homes were built in the 50's and 60's and have never been touched since.  TOTAL DESIGN NIGHTMARES!!!
