Gear up for an inspiring journey through the nuts and bolts of building dreams from the ground up as we welcome our newest teammate, Valerie! Celebrate with us as Jerry marks four incredible years of shaping our renovations landscape, from the early days of bracing the cold to replace a garage header, to mastering the complex dance of construction. We share stories that illustrate the transformation of our crew from novices to maestros in the realms of plumbing, electrical work, and beyond, showcasing the growth of both our people and our toolkit.

This episode is a testament to the evolution of MVP Rentals and Renovations, where we’ve turned chaos into a chorus of hammers and saws, all in sync. We recount our adventures with one of Whitefish Bay's oldest houses, a project that pushed our limits and taught us the delicate art of marrying modern needs with historical integrity. And as we look to the horizon of 2024, we reveal our plans to dive into backlogged properties and client-based projects, all while our team flexes their newfound independence on the job site.

Then, we switch it up by exploring the digital revolution that's smoothed out the bumps in our office operations. With Monday.com at our side, we're keeping our projects aligned like stars in the renovation constellation, ensuring every kitchen finish and file is exactly where it needs to be. And to wrap things up with soul, we spin Amy Winehouse’s "Valerie" – a tune that echoes our narrative's highs and lows, leaving you ready to take on your weekend with a story (and a song) that sticks. Join us for a blend of practical insights, heartfelt stories, and a melody that bridges our tales with Valerie's.
