My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Where was this photo taken? I live close to Hallandale, FL, and there are no mountains like shown in this photo.

      This is Jamaica. That s the only place the fan palm grows!

      Recognized the mountains instantly. Jamaica for sure.

      Thanks!

      That is not true. The fan palm also grows in Trinidad. I have one in my garden.

      The fan palm grows in all tropical areas of the world, not just Jamaica. That's ridiculous.

      People i see that mountain everyday of my life, I'm in Caracas!

      Haha- I thought this was taken in Cairns, in Far North Queensland, Australia !!
      These palms grow here and the hills look the same.
      Put as I look further into the picture they wouldn't have those types of power lines.

      It's Caracas, Venezuela. The architect, Susana Merenfeld, was born there. http://www.houzz.com/projects/3010/la-redoma-caracas-venezuela
