Reconfiguration (layout changes and structural work)
- Remove or move walls
- Change room sizes and flow
- Move kitchens or bathrooms
- Add square footage or rework entries
This is higher impact but requires more planning and often more permitting.
San Diego tip: Many older homes were built for a different lifestyle. Reconfiguration is often what makes a home feel modern, but it should be guided by a clear plan so the home does not become “open but awkward.”
