Our Fun September 20 Meeting!!!

Our meeting last September 20 was fantastic! We learned some great things. Chris Hewson from Kunda Hewson Architecture led us through many examples of architecture in the local area. Chris pointed out how hiring an architect can save you loads of money – if not, more fully utilize a block that is too small to build on.

Chris has provided us with many links that are useful when looking at prospective investment projects:
