**★★★★★ — HU-133515628, March 2026**

> We had many questions about the quality and structure of our project. Chris dug deep into the details and provided a lot of concrete information — and quickly!

**★★★★★ — Loren Peters, Jan. 2024**

> I recently had the pleasure of working with Bruce (Sensitive Information Hidden) at FlipGreat and my experience with them has been an outstanding journey of professionalism, expertise, and trust. FlipGreat stands out not only for their exceptional negotiating skills and financial acumen but also for their remarkable construction and design expertise, making them a true powerhouse in the home flipping industry. Thankfully, they have figured out how to unlock the equity potential in real estate from A to Z, while making the entire journey smooth and stress-free. Real Estate has lots of potential if you know what you are doing and can be a disastrous learning curve if you do not know what you are doing (including not being aware of the potential…aka opportunity loss/cost!). Which is why I called Bruce/FlipGreat and very glad I did. Before you make a decision on your property, give them a call first!

**★★★★★ — Eric Fonoimoana, Jan. 2024**

> Bruce and Aaron were great to work with. They did a fantastic home renovation. They were professional and thorough. When the property was sold, we got well over the asking price. The new owners were given a book of all the work done and the licensed contractor's contact info who did the work. I highly recommend them.

**★★★★★ — HU-505911557, April 2021**

> Bruce and his team at FlipGreat are the consummate professionals at taking a home from "Blah" to" Wow" in a timely fashion. They add tremendous value to your home allowing it to sell for top dollar. Most buyers these days do not have the time, energy, resources, design savvy, funds, and desire to transform a home to be move-in ready the way FlipGreat can. Present your home in the best light as it is one of the two things you have control over to achieve top results. You will find that having professionals take on this project is so very worth it when you sell your home after it has been refreshed and reimagined. I would wholeheartedly recommend you reach out for a consultation to learn more about how FlipGreat can help you.

**★★★★★ — 64North Architecture, Feb. 2020**

> As an architect working in Los Angeles over the past two decades, I've seen it all, good and bad.  Bruce and his team are among the very best and I cannot recommend them highly enough.  His attention to detail and ability to get the absolutely best value for his clients is unmatched; in an industry where so much can be difficult, he's a pleasure to work with; and most importantly, he delivers on what he promises.  I recommend without any reservations whatsoever.

**Comment from FlipGreat:**

> Thank you Wil. You are very gracious. Always a pleasure to help you and your team, and good luck on the project we recently discussed.

**★★★★★ — Lorri Quiett, Feb. 2020**

> FlipGreat is the perfect partner when a property needs improvement to maximize its potential.  Bruce is a master at seeing what needs to be done and his execution is on point, market relevant, cost effective and flawless.  The work is always top quality and in line with current trends (sometimes even ahead of them, Bruce is that good!).  I highly recommend FlipGreat!

**Comment from FlipGreat:**

> Thank you Lorri. Your clients are always very lucky to have you.

**★★★★★ — Flooring Warehouse Center (310)329-3612, Feb. 2020**

> I have done business with Bruce over Ten years. He is Straight forward, Ethical and a loyal. I would never do a real estate or construction without his consultation.  I am a thirty year veteran in Flooring , construction and real estate.

**Comment from FlipGreat:**

> Thank you Mohammad. Working with you, on any project, is always "wonderful."

## Community Q&A

**Q: Cabinets** *(in Photo Questions)*

Who is the manufacturer

A: Bellmont cabinet company. https://www.bellmontcabinets.com

**Q: What type of wood and color is the flooring ?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Brand and color and wood type of hardwood floor in this room

A: This was an existing "pegged" solid oak floor we refinished

**Q: What is door color please?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I love everything about this space!  Can I ask you what is the door color?  thanks

A: I don't have quick access to that exact color, but I believe it is a Sherwin Willims color (Capri, Jamaica bay, Mariner, Calypso) are all very similar. And really the exact color doesn't matter that much because we don't know how that color will play with the light in your specific situation. I would suggest you get samples of several colors that look like this put them up in your space, see how the light works with them and see what you prefer. The most cost effective way to do this is at Home Depot.

**Q: Cabinets** *(in Photo Questions)*

I've been looking for that exact color, what is it?

A: Hi, can you tell me the color of the cabinets?

**Q: Island lighting fixtures** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you pls share the name and brand? Thanks!

A: Similar: https://www.amazon.com/Franklin-Brass-P29617K-SN-B-Francisco-Furniture/dp/B00MX66VSE/ref=psdc\_511260\_t2\_B00JH1SJ4C?th=1

**Q: The Star Light** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you please tell me where you bought the Star light and the size? We are building a 'Stair Tower' at our cabin and. would Love a Star Chandelier. 
thank you

A: In your search for lighting, search for a Moravian star. Years ago I used to have to get them from Mexico for my designs but now you can find them from a number of sources
