You want me to do what? - 08/20/10 11:48 AM
Recently, we were referred to a really nice architect in the Boston area who was completing a rehab project.  He wanted to stage the units before they began marketing them so they would really shine.  We went through our usual process of getting a quote, visting the site, discussing the demographics of the likely buyer, and narrowing down the budget and installation dates.  We then began the process of selecting furniture and accessories to create a final quote and really get the process started.
What we did not know was that our client was secretly shopping us against a "budget" rental … (5 comments)
