Aloha, Uncle Warren & Auntie Sheri!
Welcome to your first renovation update. We officially kicked things off today with Andy on-site and work underway. Everything has gone smoothly so far. We came in under budget on materials, Andy's estimate came in lower than projected, and the property was clean and ready to go after Christian moved out. I'm excited to show you what we're building here. This report will come to you every week so you always know exactly where things stand.
This report covers everything that happened from March 25 through April 6, what's coming up in the next seven days, and where you stand right now on every open item. As always, I'm just a text or call away if you have questions about anything you see here.
