❚ If the homeowner has already decided on the direction, we suggest homeowners start discussing details with a suitable interior design or renovation company 3-4 months before VP.
Why?
The initial discussion process may take longer than expected. It involves discussing your needs, choosing a design style, finalising quotations, selecting materials, and having the designer create 3D renderings. This back-and-forth process can take around two months or even longer.

❚ If the homeowner still has six months or more to VP and is only surveying the market, they can check out case studies from different companies or enquire about pricing. Websites like Atap.co also offer some case studies with listed prices.
So, if the homeowner wants to be well-prepared before receiving the keys and start defect checking immediately, followed by quick renovations to move in as soon as possible, then 【starting to consult 3-4 months before receiving the keys】is the most suitable approach.
