        "text": "Before starting, gather property documents, note structural problem areas, compile functional priorities, and establish a realistic budget contingency. Clarify which aspects are critical—such as opening up a cramped kitchen or reconfiguring a primary suite—versus secondary aesthetic wishes. It is also beneficial to check whether your neighborhood has specific design restrictions and to prepare a temporary living plan so daily routines remain manageable while major work occurs.",
