Because it's easy to spend too much money on a home improvement project, RenovatorsPlace.com, an online interactive home repair resource, suggests that homeowners find a renovation coach in addition to a qualified remodeling contractor to stay on schedule and budget (http://www.renovatorsplace.com/dsp_articles.cfm?l_article_id=584). With housing prices in fluctuation all across the country--in some major housing markets experts expect prices to drop by as much as 9 percent--it grows increasingly important for renovation-minded homeowners to spend their money wisely. Consequently, hiring a consultant to provide expertise and guidance is a wise investment.
Drawing on the expertise of a professional consultant is nothing new in other industries, but renovation coaching is a relatively new trend to the home improvement world. According to RenovatorsPlace.com's recent article on the topic (http://www.renovatorsplace.com/dsp_articles.cfm?l_article_id=584), a renovation coach can help communicate with contractors, obtain the necessary permits, as well as point out ways to save money on the entire project. A remodeling contractor's motivation is mainly to get the job completed and move on, but a renovation coach can ensure the home improvement process is done well, not just done.
With uncertain home values and spring remodeling in full swing, finding home improvement specialists to add value in today's housing market is crucial, says Allison Beatty, founder of RenovatorsPlace.com. "The spring remodeling season actually starts now for many savvy home owners," Beatty points out.

Tips for employing a renovation coach are on the site as well.
The experts at This Old House are calling renovation coaches "a new breed of therapist" who can help save the homeowner from making costly mistakes. Unlike contractors and other professionals in this field, the renovation coach frequently charges an hourly rate as opposed to a lump sum.
