Because I live so far away, it was especially crucial that I find someone I felt I could count on and trust. I found The Healey Company through Angie's List. They seemed perfect for the job; they are located in the South Side, they have lots of experience with working on old houses in that area, and they could even manage the rental property for me when the house was finished.
I contacted them and soon learned that it was going to take a whole lot more money, and a whole lot more time, to do the job right. I?m a big believer in doing something right the first time, whenever possible, so I took a leap of faith (and took out a sizable loan) and embarked on this project with The Healey Company.
I didn?t know what I was getting myself into, and perhaps The Healey Company didn?t either?taking on a complete novice client like me?but the results far exceed what I had originally envisioned. The house is beautiful and I seriously envy the tenants (the wonderful tenants that The Healey Company found for me) and look forward to someday being able to enjoy the house myself.
Some of the plusses of working with The Healey Company: they guided me every step of the way?from helping me find a good local mortgage lender, to helping me the find insurance to cover the house while it was being renovated (a bank requirement and one of the biggest challenges). They did excellent work, fulfilling my wishes to bring as much light and as much storage space to the house as possible, and essentially turning a crumbling shell of a house into a solid, beautiful home and a credit to the neighborhood. I believe Mike Healey is an honorable person and I feel lucky to have found him and his company. Designer Christine Rider did an amazing job of finding me the best quality finishes and fixtures my budget allowed and I am grateful for her hard work, vision, good communication, and patience.
Some of the minuses of working with The Healey Company: they are not inexpensive, but I believe, in the end, that they earned every penny and I got what I paid for (and probably then some). The project took longer than expected, but I guess with a 100+ year old house, ?surprises? are to be expected. Prompt communication is not Mike Healey?s strong suit. He always got back to me, eventually, but often not as promptly as I would have liked.
