Achievement
... ... by comprehensive management of the project.
Once the ideal property has been found and the project is given the go-ahead, work begins with essential discussions:
with the neighbours (who need to be won over)
with the co-owners (who need to be charmed)
with the city building administrator (who needs to be notified)
with the local authorities (who need to be convinced), and sometimes even
with the Historic Society (which needs to be mollified).
Once all these negotiations have been satisfactorily completed, all that needs to be done is:
to find reputable contractors and suppliers
to get price quotes from them
to ensure their expertise
to trust that they work fully within the law
... and to secure funding!
