On this episode of High Octane Real Estate Pam talks with Tina Scacco of Scacco Construction about practical fixes that turn stuck houses into sellable homes. Tina shares her backstory growing up around construction and why she started her own women owned company. We dig into smart updates that add real livable square footage like converting Florida rooms and adding ensuite bathrooms, plus when it makes sense to open up a kitchen versus chasing a two foot miracle.

Hear the trade truths about budgeting permitting and why projects almost always cost more than people expect. Tina explains the difference between quick cosmetic changes and true structural work and offers tips for homeowners who want to avoid costly surprises. We also laugh about the wild requests contractors get and talk about the progress being made by women in construction. Stick around for the headbanger housing segment and a few off the cuff moments you will not want to miss.
