When Rabbi Josh Bennett and his wife Meg
V V recently began to feel the burden of an
outdated home, one in which their family was
quickly outgrowing, they realized it was time to take
action. "We have a tri-level built in the
1950's, and it had 1950's styling and no
basement," explained Rabbi Bennett.

Though they were eager to update their
lifestyle, he said he and his wife were
apprehensive at the idea of moving from
the place they'd been calling home and
raising their three young children. So they
weighed their options. In the end, he said,
turning to Gittleman was the logical choice.

We love our neighborhood and our neighbors, so working with Gittleman enabled us to get exactly
what we wanted in our existing home — without moving."

Herrmann of Beverly Hills, local state public affairs co-chair, listen to
Sander Lurie, chief of staff for U.S Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich.

During the renovation process, the Bennetts relied on the expertise of the Gittleman team to design a
versatile plan that fit their family's needs. "We were totally dependant on the staff, and every person
was there for us. From start to finish, the entire experience was 100 percent positive," he said, noting
that he has already referred Gittleman to others.

Today, the Bennetts enjoy a home that has been nearly entirely refurbished — from the master bedroom
with vaulted ceilings and elegant bath to the addition of 1,000 square feet, including a guest room,
playroom and extra storage space. "It was like walking into a new house," Rabbi Bennett said.

So when the time comes to either move up or move out, save yourself the hassle that comes with
relocating, and let Gittleman transform your existing house into the home of your dreams.
