Phuket villa renovation managed from Hong Kong.

What happened

This was Nicole's own villa, renovated while she was living in Hong Kong.

The first attempt, managed directly by the builder, went over budget and stalled. The second time, with someone on the ground representing the owners' interests, the project came together.

That difference is the reason Summit exists.
