TONYS BLOG
This weeks data shows home values increasing while supply continues to decrease and Im officially calling myself a broken record on this topic. Some really impressive numbers coming out of East Manhattan and Hermosa Beach this period and another surge of Buyers are entering the marketplace dealing with the incredibly low amount of inventory to choose from. Marketing properties before they go live on the MLS is becoming the new normal for agents and August closed out 10 transactions in the area sold before hitting the market (also known as Pocket Listings). Look for this trend to continue with the inventory issues and contact me to get your property exposed to our networks before they get listed!

PALOS VERDES ROAD DEVELOPMENT
BY MAUREEN MEGOWAN / RE/MAX PALOS VERDES EXECS

publiSher Warren J dow marketing DireCtor deanna Whipp Creative DireCtor amanda nelson-Sinagra Digital meDia SpeCialiSt Kieron mcKay
Road Construction on the Palos Verdes Peninsula did not take place until the 1920s. Palos Verdes Drive West in the Valmonte and Malaga Cove area was the first road developed as part of the original Palos Verdes Project. Palos Verdes Drive East in the Miraleste area, then known as Western Avenue and which was part of the Palos Verdes Project, was then developed to facilitate lot sales there. In 1926, the coast road connecting Redondo Beach to San Pedro, previously called Granvia La Costa, now called Palos Verdes Drive West, was completed, including the monumental Douglas Cut, which was blasted away above Bluff Cove. This road was simply referred to as the Coast Road. Old maps shows the Coast road connecting to Western Ave, which later was renamed Palos Verdes Drive East and now runs into Narbonne Ave on the north. Western Avenue later was constructed between Narbonne/Palos Verdes Drive East and Gaffey Street in San Pedro. Pacific Coast Highway was named Redondo and Wilmington Road at that time and connected to Anaheim Street at the current junction with Western Ave. Palos Verdes Drive North was completed in themid 1930s. The extension of Crenshaw from Crest Road to Palos Verdes Drive South was never completed due to the Portuguese Bend landslide in the mid 1950s which was triggered by road grading for the extension of Crenshaw Blvd. Road construction moved forward rapidly in the late 1950s and through the mid 1960s. Construction of Crenshaw Boulevard up a canyon from Palos Verdes Drive North to Crest Road commenced in mid June 1950; and was completed in September 1951, utilizing labor for the construction by inmates at County Detention Camp No. 7 in the Peninsula Center area. Crest Road, constructed by the developers of the Palos Verdes Project, ran from Palos Verdes Dr. East across the top of the hill and then down to Palos Verdes Drive West along the current lower portion of Hawthorne Blvd. Prior to extending Crenshaw up the hill, Crenshaw had extended to the gated entrance to Rolling Hills, and that portion of Crenshaw was then renamed Rolling Hills Road. The extension of Crenshaw from Crest Road to Palos Verdes Drive South was never completed due to the Portuguese Bend landslide in the mid 1950s which was triggered by road grading for the extension of Crenshaw Blvd. Construction of Hawthorne Blvd. through the Peninsula was completed in several segments.

Hawthorne Blvd. was completed from Silver Spur Road to Crest in 1959. The segment from Palos Verdes Drive North to Silver Spur Road was completed in 1961. HawthorneAvenue veered right into Palos Verdes Estates at what is today called Via Valmonte. After several years of planning, the final segment extending Hawthorne Blvd. from Newton in Torrance to Palos Verdes Drive North was completed in 1965.

A clAssic south redondo home with A globAl vibe
W r i tte n By: pam ela co rant e-hanSen
as a boy growing up in the hague, netherlands, paul Walchenbachs mother would heat enough water to fill a small metal basin in the middle of the kitchen so that her children could bathe. today, a doublewalled porcelain tub is the focus of a stately, marblelined bathroom in Walchenbachs South redondo Beach home. a cabinetmaker by trade and a general contractor by profession, Walchenbach has combined comfort and classic style in the 1928 Spanish revival home he shares with his wife, Wendy. the couple has filled their 1800-square-foot home with a well-curated
to one of the black-and-white porcelain squares that top the wainscoting in the bathroom. Smitten with the design, the Walchenbachs photographed it and when they returned from Spain, paul spent a weekend drawing the pattern. california pottery and tile created the ceramic version of his rendering. throughout the home, Walchenbachs craftand dutch rootsare evident in a way that complements the original architecture of the home. the kitchen was a mess when we bought the house in 1999, he remarks. today, its centerpiece is a sturdy, cobalt magic chef stove made in the mid-1930s. Walchenbach spotted it
tasteful collection of paintings, many of them from Walchenbachs homeland. a portrait of hollands Queen Wilhelmina from the early 1900s shows the monarch wearing a traditional lace cap with gold knobs adorning the forehead. Just a few feet away, a landscape painting by early 20th century artist cornelis Koppenol depicts the same beach in the netherlands where Walchenbachs parents would take him as a child. having a brother who is a european antiques dealer certainly helps when it comes to sourcing unique furniture and original artwork, but a keen eye and a shared passion for a certain style of furnishings
EvErythiNg has a mEmory, WalchENBach tElls a visitor BEforE dEscriBiNg how a collection of terra cotta chimney tops made the journey from Portugals algarve region to their lush backyard.
collection of antique furniture and paintings that serve as reminders of pauls european heritage and a celebration of the pairs shared eclectic tastes. everything has a memory, Walchenbach tells a visitor before describing how a collection of terra cotta chimney tops made the journey from portugals algarve region to their lush backyard. each carefully-placed table, every centuries-old armoire, all of the paintings that grace the walls have a story to tell. We first saw these tiles in the hotel alfonso Xiii in Seville, Walchenbach says, pointing
at a shop in San diego while scoping out a different stove. he convinced the store owner to sell it, despite the fact that the owner had wanted it for his wife. above the stove, a set of contemporary lighting fixtures from holland shaped like wire whisks add a subtle touch of whimsy. Walchenbach, a dyedin-the-wool epicure, enjoys spending time in his kitchen. When we have guests, this is where people congregate, he notes. in the barrel-ceilinged hallway, rose-colored plaster walls provide an elegant backdrop for a
also has enabled the Walchenbachs to amass a diverse collection of art and decorative objects. We have about 93 percent the same taste, quips Wendy. as an example, the couple describes how they found chairs for the guest bedroom. paul was on a short visit to the netherlands with his brother and spotted two petite 19th century chairs in an antiques store. Wendy was home in the States, so paul took a chance and purchased the chairs. they were a hit. not all of the couples treasures were found while traveling abroad. in the guest bedroom, an exquisitely

carved portuguese headboard made in the 1700s was purchased at an antiques store in new mexico. in the same room, a rustic, 18th century armoire from france came into the Walchenbachs possession by way of a shop in montecito. perhaps the most eclectic room in the house is the master bedroom. here, two wall-sized canvases bear artwork by contemporary dutch artists. By contrast, a 19th century chinese wedding cabinet, with flecks of red paint still visible, serves as a wardrobe. a diaphanous silk fortuny lamp from Venice hangs from a weathered wood ceiling panel that served as a courtyard door during its previous life in india. on either side of the bed, two brass wall sconces reflect the same star motif that appears on the bedroom door. By todays standards the home is modest in size, however the Walchenbachs take full advantage
of the South Bays mild weather and make use of their backyard. a 45-year-old grapevine has sent its tendrils up a pergola covering a walkway to the garage. as with most of the original houses along the avenues in South redondo Beach, the detached garages were built behind the homes and are accessible from an alley. Smack-dab in the center of the backyard, an avocado tree that paul believes was planted when the home was built provides shade and privacy. people told us to cut it down after we bought the house, recalls paul, but we thought it added character. Visitors must walk a meandering path around the tree to get to what the Walchenbachs call the moroccan room. tucked away at the far end of the property and hidden behind a 200-year-old wooden gate from china, the moroccan room is an outdoor living space
styled like a desert retreat. Walchenbach built an outdoor fireplace decorated with brilliant mosaic tile to anchor the north african motif. low-lying seats covered in multi-hued fabrics provide a place to relax, read or enjoy the company of friends. three walls form a u-shaped support for a ceiling that shelters the space from the elements. embedded in each of the two side walls is a stone latticed window from pakistan. the plaster baseboards are made from a custom mold bearing an ancient islamic pattern. on a balmy afternoon, paul takes a seat in the cool shade of his secluded oasis to demonstrate the functionality of the outdoor fireplace. the exotic splendor of the moroccan room was born entirely from Walchenbachs imagination and skills as a master craftsman. But when asked, very little comes close to the magic of his double-walled bathtub.

WAYFARERS CHAPEL
W r itte n By: de n i S e Ka n o
as you follow palos Verdes drive South with the pacific ocean on your right, youll come across gorgeous views, amazing homes, and a familiar sight: the beautiful chapel set atop a lush, grassy hill. Besides serving as an intimate venue for special occasions, Wayfarers chapel also provides visitors with a quiet place to pause and take in the peaceful surroundings. the chapel, also known as the glass church, sits on a cliff overlooking the pacific ocean. to say that the view is stunning is an understatement. the area is so serene and picturesque; you feel an immediate sense of calm upon leaving your car in the parking lot and walking up the stone steps toward the chapel.
cHAPEL HiStORy
the chapel was built in 1951 by lloyd Wright (son of frank lloyd Wright), and, as is common with many of Wrights designs, the chapel features geometric designs combined with the natural landscape. according to Wayfarers literature, Wright was inspired by the cathedral-like majesty of the redwood trees in northern california, and this plays into the chapels designs. this unique structure was specifically designed to serve as a chapel for meditation and prayer for wayfarers, or travelers. made of redwood, glass, and palos Verdes stone, the building also features numerous triangles which are intended to symbolize spiritual values. the huge, circular glass panes are also used to convey spiritual concepts. as part of the Swedenborgian church of north america, the chapel stands as a memorial to Swedish scientist, philosopher, and religious reformer, emanuel Swedenborg. more information on Swedenborgs contributions can be found in the nearby Visitors center. the chapels vast gardens include flowering shrubs and evergreen trees that enhance the magnificent setting. Several plants and shrubs are representative of those found in the holy land. Because of its scenic location, the church is obviously very popular for weddings, both inside the chapel itself and outside on the chapel grounds.

SPEciAL MEMORiES
We chose Wayfarers for many reasons, said lisa radeski, who was married there in december of 1982, and returned in 1985 for the baptism of her first son. i grew up always knowing it as the glass church, and we would see it when we went to the tide pools or horseback riding. it was always so beautiful sitting up there on the hill overlooking the ocean. the atmosphere of evening occasions provides just as much drama as the panoramic daytime view. Because our wedding was at night we didnt actually take advantage of the spectacular view, said lisa. But because of the glass architecture we felt like we were part of nature, and the dark sky along with the low lighting made it seem like we were outdoors. lisa and her husband, matt, were married by the rev. harvey tafel, who has been with the chapel since 1972. it has the most beautiful working conditions in the world, said reverend tafel. its a ministry all of its own. lisa has returned to the chapel several times for weddings and funerals. i always come away with a sense of peace and calmness, she said. the setting and atmosphere just seem so organic in terms of doing something momentous but calming and important.
ViSitORS iNfORMAtiON
the chapel and gardens are open daily from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. the Visitors center is open daily from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm. admission is free.
WAyfARERS fUN fActS:

the chapel hosts 400 weddings per year. the cornerstone was dedicated in 1949. the chapel was featured in the television series the o.c. actress Jayne mansfield married mickey hargitay at the chapel. the chapel is listed in the national register of historic places.

ABS OLUTELY NOT, I C OM PL E TE LY DI SAG REE . . .

Every year our industry trade REALTOR Magazine publishes their findings for the return of profit compared to the cost of remodel projects. I continually shake my head in wonderment. Why? It basically states that for every dollar you put into your remodel you will get between $.42 and $.75 cents back. You dont have to be a mathemegenious (source: Dictionary of Ed; I have a lot of words I cant seem to find in Websters) to know that if you get 50-75% of what you spend that . . . profit is non-existent. Matter of fact, you are guaranteed to lose money. What surprises me more is I never see any rebuttals or arguments to what they print. So I am going to go out on a limb here and state that I completely disagree with the findings published in REALTOR Magazine. Caution to readers: In order for REALTOR Magazine to arrive upon their findings, they invest in thousands of man hours, process research and intense financial calculations, design spreadsheets, execute surveys in hundreds of market areas, and consult with licensed contractors, homeowners, buyers to come up with their detailed and precise findings. I, Ed Kaminsky, have used no spread sheets, calculators, notepads, surveys and have not spoken with anyone about my opinion before surmising my findings. I did, however, rely upon my 25 years of experience in the real estate field. In addition, I participated in the sale of thousands of homes (some of which have been remodeled, some which have not), and experienced firsthand the profit gains and losses of millions of dollars from my very own pockets. That and I relied upon my gut feelings to lead to these conclusions. So lets start with REALTOR Mag 2011-2012 Big-Bang Remodeling projects. (They say Big Bang because you supposedly get the biggest bang for your buck.) Here are their Top 6 . . . dont get too excited here unless you like losing money. Kitchen Minor Remodel- Minor to me means that you plan to NOT spend $150,000 on a kitchen remodel, your budget is conservative and you are not seeking a major structural renovation in your kitchen. When considering the truthful return on your minor kitchen remodel investment, lets look at two realistic outcomes: In case study # 1, I am showing a buyer a home built in 1956 in the Tree Section of Manhattan Beach priced at $1,125,000. We walk in and see an original kitchen with pine cabinets and pink square tiles. My buyer says one word, disgusting, and walks out. In case study #2- another home hits the market in the same neighborhood. It was built in the same year, it is the same size, and in very similar condition, except that it Attic Bedroom- I am not going to comment on this one, because the West Coast doesnt have enough attic bedroom conversions for me to honestly voice an opinion. Entry Door Replacement- Realtor Mag refers to steel doors. I am thinking they wrote this article in the Mid-West, as most doors on the West Coast are wood. Front doors are my pet peeve. This is your first impression. Own an ugly front door? Knock $30,000 off the price of your home. Buyers are often stuck at front doors from 1-3 minutes while real estate agents search for a lock box and they spend that time determining the value of the home by the condition of the front door. My opinion of the potential return on front doors is off the charts positive. would like a gorgeous, two-story contemporary home built within the last two years, would you consider living about 15 miles east of Los Angeles? The truth is you can easily re-stucco a home anywhere from $6,000 to $25,000 on a small-to-average size home. Your likely return on that expense could easily be 100-150% of cost depending on the location and house.
Top 6 Returns on Investment in a Remodel

Siding Replacement (upscale) - fiber-cement Job Cost: $13,461 Resale Value: $10,493 Cost Recouped: 78% Entry Door Replacement - steel Job Cost: $1,238 Resale Value: $903 Cost Recouped: 73% Attic Bedroom Addition Job Cost: $50,148 Resale Value: $36,346 Cost Recouped: 72.5%
*according to Realtor Mag, 2012
features a very basic, $20,000 kitchen remodel with inexpensive new cabinets, pre-fab granite counter tops and some brand new, standard grade appliances. The offering price on this home is $1,199,000. Can you guess the results? The home with the original kitchen lingered on the market with a few price reductions and ultimately sold well under the original list price. The home with the minor remodel received multiple offers and a final sale price exceeding $1.2 million. Return on $20,000 . . . ? Do the math. Garage door- Whether its a basic or upscale garage door replacement, I dont think it really matters as long as its presents well upon arrival. Garage doors are like front doors, they too are first impression issues. I recently took my client out looking for homes and we are driving up to a home in East Manhattan Beach and it had a wooden garage door with peeling paint and cracked panels. In the driveway, my buyer, Barbara, had one thing to say to me: What are we seeing next?. How much did that seller lose by not replacing that garage door? All I can say is that Barbara is a well qualified buyer and can afford to spend $1,500,000 for the right house. So, whether the seller potentially lost $10k or $50k by making Barbara move on to the next house at first sight of that garage door, Im not sure, but I can tell you with confidence that it was more than a $2,994 loss for sure.
Kitchen: Minor Remodel Job Cost: $19,588 Resale Value: $14,120 Cost Recouped: 72.1% Garage Door Replacement Job Cost: $1,512 Resale Value: $1,087 Cost Recouped: 71.9% Garage Door Replacement (upscale) Job Cost: $2,994 Resale Value: $2,129 Cost Recouped: 71.1%
I am going to convert the above to real life conversations I have had with buyers in my travels throughout the South Bay. Some of the names have been changed to protect the innocent. Siding Replacement- First of all when I think of siding, I think of Cleveland, Ohio where I am originally from, and a movie about aluminum siding sales people. For the sake of the Pacific region I think its safe to say we can interchange Siding with Stucco. The most common thing I hear lately is the debate about old school, extremely rough stucco vs. todays more popular super smooth stucco. When I pulled up to a home with rough stucco, my last buyer said Cmon Ed I am not even walking into that home. I cant have my friends see me living in a 1970s stucco box. Inside I am thinking, Fred you only have a $700,000 budget. If you
The bottom line is that many remodel projects can make you a lot of money, contrary to what these magazine and internet articles seem to publish. There are certainly a lot of network TV shows that probably more closely agree with my analysis. My suggestion is to do your own research and get the opinions of your local experts. Certainly do not over-spend on a remodel if you intend to sell soon thereafter.
Every buyer tells me that they are OK with a minor fixer and that they can see past the current condition of many homes. Again, from experience, I beg to differ.
In this fast paced market, you cant afford missed opportunities. Call Ed today for the deepest access to the best prospects for huge gains in Real Estate.

Eds All Time Top Bang for your Buck Fix-Its

Staging- Its inexpensive and can bring huge returns. This means de-cluttering, depersonalizing , cleaning, moving furniture around, and a little general handwork to get a home in sale-ready condition. Spend a few dollars working with an expert stager; there are plenty around or if you are on a tight budget, do some free research on Google and make your own staging short-list. Paint- This is a huge return on the investment, worth 3-5 times what you spend. This is an Landscape- Dont go crazy here but stand back and take a good look at your current landscaping. Get rid of weeds, plant new grass, mulch everywhere, spruce up with some inexpensive, colorful flowers; you get big returns on this one. In closing, if you are selling a home and you want to maximize profits, it is always worth the time, money and energy if you can spend a little to slightly upgrade your home. Every buyer tells me that they are OK with a minor fixer and that they can see past the current condition of many homes. Again, from experience, I beg to differ. I could retire today if I got a dollar for every buyer that started with saying that, but then refused to buy a home that needed basic carpet and paint. Buyers buy emotionally more than they do logically. Its a fact. You can read it about it in the Ed dictionary under the B section. Thats where it talks Carpet- This is another pet peeve of mine. If you do nothing else, change old carpet! Nothing is worse than dirty, worn carpet when showing a buyer a home. New carpet creates a clean, welcoming environment, and it gives off that new home smell. STOP worrying about what color a buyer is going to like and just put a nice neutral shade of budget friendly carpet in. You will get 200-500% on your money for new carpet. about how Buyers are Liars. Buyers never buy what they tell you they want. More often than not, they buy something completely different. It often takes time for buyers to get educated about what is on the market in their price range and they quickly have to adjust what they think they want to get in line with what they can actually afford. Its often a far cry from what they first describe on an initial meeting.

Ed Kaminsky
I knew Ed was one of the most active agents in the area, so when we started working with him I thought he might be too busy for us. I was pleasantly surprised to find out he was there for us morning, noon and night, every step of the way. I dont think he sleeps. He is organized, a great negotiator and his team was spectacular. - Paul K., Manhattan Beach
Tina Kaminsky
My wife and I had already spent three or four months monitoring the online listing sites and visiting open houses on our own before we decided to enlist the services of a buyers agent. We felt confident that Tina and Ed understood what we were looking for and over the next few months they worked with us, developing our understanding of the local market and helping us hone our own priorities as we visited listing after listing. They brought us an opportunity that checked off several of our must-haves, but was located in a section of Manhattan Beach that we had not seriously considered. After spending a few hours in the neighborhood, we knew it was perfect. We put together an offer over the weekend and although we found ourselves in a multiple bid situation, by Thursday we were in escrow. - M. Fransciso, Manhattan Beach
Becky Davidson
If youre looking for an amazing Realtor, Becky Davidson is it! My husband and I just bought our first home and couldnt be more thrilled. Beckys professionalism, knowledge of the market and enthusiasm made the process go very smoothly. Right from our first meeting, I knew she understood our needs and was totally committed to helping us find our perfect new home. Becky always made herself available to us by email, phone or text. We never had to wait long to get an answer to our questions or a follow up on an issue. Another quality that makes her a stand out agent is that she never pressured us into the wrong home. Who needs the added stress of second guessing such an important decision? If we are ever in the market again, we will definitely be calling Becky. - Ivonne and Sal Huertas, Redondo Beach
STACI BROOKS
When we decided it was time to buy our first home to support our growing family, we really didnt know where to begin. We couldnt have been more fortunate to connect with Staci, who not only found us the perfect house but also helped us through every step of the process. We had many specific needs, including space for a home office, a quiet street, a house that required very little maintenance (we arent very handy!) and she found us the needle-ina-haystack that fulfilled them all. She both brought us to a fantastic house and helped us get a great price as well. We love it and will absolutely be recommending her to our friends in the South Bay who are buying a home. - Ryan Leach & Lydia Veilleux

Q:
What is impactful design and how do you create it?
F our Special Interior Design | Home F or urnishings Edition, South Bay Digs reached out to the local interior design community and asked them to answer the above question:
Bernadette Capellaro, Cantoni F urniture in L Angeles os
There is no secret or trick to effective design. Its a matter of understanding the space and the whims and personality of the client. As the Senior designer at Cantoni furniture in Los Angeles, I meet clients with tastes that vary from the rapper to the real estate developer and everything in between. Our projects run the gamut from designing suites at the W Hotel to helping Justin Bieber pick out the right bed. The key is to understand the clients lifestyle, know the bones of the room and know where to put the emphasis. At Cantoni furniture our motto is Great design is a way of life. Great design has no secrets or tricks; its about good listening, experience, and the desire to create a space you could die for! Bernadette capellaro | Design consultant | www.cantoni.com | 323.634.0909
Nadia Elgrably, Nadia Designs in Manhattan Beach

I have always felt that Good Design is like a symphony of elements. Those Design elements are our orchestra. Like musical notes- they are personalized to the project, space and our clients needs and desires. To me, for design to have impact it must exceed the following criteria. Appeal- what we see, how it feels, and what emotion it stirs for our senses. Luxurious Details- Whether it is the hardware selected on the cabinet door, the fabric on your favorite chair or the extra roomy shower with all the amenities, luxury surrounds us. Function- The functionality of space is critical. Not only to meet the needs of today, but also to forecast and adapt to future needs, surpassing the mediocre. Spacial Harmony- a room full of showy pieces is best in a museum. Less is more. Responsibility- To meet budget and costs, and to operate on time and to schedule whenever possible. In addition, we need to protect our environment by exercising the option to select from responsible manufacturers, products and builders. nadia elgrably | www.nadiaDesigns.org | 310.892.1799

Impactful design is the successful melding of visual beauty and exceptional performance. By planning spaces that are functional, comfortable, beautiful and sustainable we can help our clients live healthier, happier lives.
Nancy Manning, H ornbeck Design P artners in Redondo Beach

Hornbeck Design Partners always works on each project as a unique partnership between the client, the designer and the space. With a clear design objective refined with our clients, we create significant impact using unique and creative combinations of furnishings, color, texture, art and accessories. Sometimes one or more of these elements become dominant, but there must be a sense of balance in a room. Not every piece needs to or should be the wow piece. Good design takes a trained editing eye as well as good selection, remembering proportion and context. Impact can be subtle and strong eliciting the desired emotional response. nancy manning | www.hornbeckDesignpartners.com | 310.406.1713
Sarah Barnard, leeD ap | www.SarahBarnard.com | 310.823.7331
T F alia rederick, T Interior Design in Manhattan Beach alia

Impactful design is creating a space that makes a person feel like they are swept away to a personal utopia. Whether it a feeling of being on a luxury vacation or going back to fond memories of the past, that place makes one feel happy inside. I create this by listening to what a client really truly wants and implementing a sense of balance and harmony to the space that encompasses all of those things. talia Frederick | www.taliainteriorDesign.com | 310.480.6079
Claudia Edler Kazachinsky, CEK Design, Inc in Redondo Beach

In art school, one of my teachers used to say, Color always gets the credit, and it is inherently true ,not just in art, but also in interior design. How do I create an impactful design? In my case by doing the unexpected and assembling different textures and colors; crystal and wicker, tangerine and fuchsia, French baroque and modern. As a believer in the adage form follows function, I play by the rules by spending time interviewing the client before creating layouts and selecting the pieces. I believe in proportion, comfort, light and texture, but in the end color always takes center stage.

Impactful interior design is a design that is created specifically for a client to positively support their lifestyle. The furnishings are creative, reliable in quality, and align with the clients tastes and preferences. At Caroline Burke Designs Inc. ,it is our philosophy that a well designed home fully supports a happy, healthy lifestyle.
SANDy KoepKe, SANDy KoepKe iNTeRioR DeSiGN

Good timeless design feels effortless. the impact is subtle...and not just about how it looks, but also how it FEELS. creating wonderful spaces is about knowing the client, being sensitive to the site and the architecture plus good measures of experience, training, and imagination. A newly done space ought to feel like it has always been there: comfortable and welcoming, but with a little hit of fun and surprise.

LoRReN LoTeSTA, ReALeSTAGe

Impactful design is not so much concerned with the outward appearance rather the inward significance every project has for our clients. Being a good interior designer means having the ability to check your ego at the door and truly listen to their individual dreams. In every project we endeavor to create something poignant and meaningful for our clients.
CHRiSTiNe M. STAHLBeRG, CMS iNTeRioR DeSiGN

The Definition of impactful, is having a major impact or effect: an eye catching and impactful design. Impactful design is creating a space that has that wow factor. You enter this space, residence, resort, room, restaurant, etc. and immediately feel a sense of comfort, balance, harmony, happiness, which may be subtle or over whelming, but it is an experience sometimes you cant explain. This effect can bring you motivation and inspiration. You leave the space feeling calm and relaxed. And days, weeks and months after you leave this space, you always remember that feeling you had of what impactful design feels to you. Ive always believed that beautiful design elevates quality of life. We seek out possessions and experiences that enrich us.

NiCoLe GiLLiS, ATMoSpHeRe iNTeRioR DeSiGNS

Texture is the magical ingredient to creating impact in any room - it is unique in that it can evoke our senses both physically and emotionally. Through the use of different textures; depth, dimension, and layers are added to the space, creating an elevated visual experience. One must call to light the inherent beauty of an individual space and accent it with personal treasures and unique finds, the unification of function and form will impact owners and guest alike. Weaving in rare finds with present-day design creates impact in any space. History melded with modern elements, creates balance and harmony that will sooth the soul.

TOTAL TRANSPARENC Y
With the rates that we offer, there is nothing to hide. We provide our clients honest answers, sound advice and exclusive programs.
Recent Client Testimonial: After seeing Regans ad in the South Bay Digs and reading positive testimonials about him on various websites, I decided to give Regan a call to see if he could help me. Although I had refinanced only 7 months earlier at a very good rate, the rate and closing costs that Regan offered could not be beat! He was clearly an expert in the mortgage field, and he explained everything in a very clear and concise manner. All the paperwork was completed quickly and efficiently and we closed in less than 30 days. He was available to call at any time of the day (and I did). In a field not known for its trustworthiness, Regan was an open and honest Mortgage Professional, and I would not hesitate to refer him to my family and friends. Ranjan and Rosanna Rancho Palos Verdes Welcome to Watermark:
Transparency and solutions are the foundation of my success, and I promise both to each and every client. While other lenders focus on feel good services, I focus on the financing. In an industry that hasnt had a great reputation over the past few years, I take pride in knowing that Ive gained the trust and respect of my clients. In todays market the most important thing when obtaining a home loan is the mortgage professional you work with and the resources that they have at their disposal. Whether you have a simple conventional purchase, or a complex Jumbo transaction, feel free to call me at anytime and find out why Watermark is right for you.
