Photos or inspiration images help communicate your style and priorities quickly.\n\nContractors can give you much better guidance when they understand constraints and expectations up front. You don’t need final answers, but some structure makes the meeting more productive.\n\nKey factors:\n- Number of rooms or functions you want to add or change\n- Your target budget range and flexibility\n- Timing needs (e.g., before a new baby, before selling, or around work schedule)\n- Any HOA rules, prior plans, or surveys you may have\n\nBefore the meeting, write down your top three goals and any concerns from past projects. Sharing this early allows the contractor to flag feasibility issues and suggest alternatives that better match your budget and timeline."
