Della Hansmann | Mid-Century Design Expert and owner of Mid Mod Midwest

So much of the advice out there about home improvements is focused on the bottom line, treating your home as a commodity.  And sure, remodeling always has a cost. There are financial factors involved.

In Today's Episode You'll Hear:
- Why you should remove the tub…if you want to!
- How to treat your house like a home instead of a commodity. 
- Which investments really matter when you remodel.
