Meet your neighbor
I'm Olivia, your neighbor for trusty home tips.
Coffee on the porch, sneakers on the driveway, and a soft spot for anyone who just bought their first house. I started HeyNeighbor because home stuff shouldn't feel like a foreign language.
I'm not a licensed contractor. I'm the neighbor who's done it once, made every rookie mistake, and would rather save you the trouble. When a job is bigger than a Saturday, I'll tell you, and I'll tell you how to hire the right person for it.
What you can count on.
Straight talk
If something's a pro job, I say so, early, not after step 4.
No sponsored 'picks'
I recommend characteristics to look for, not brands that paid me.
Real order of operations
Every guide is the order I'd do it in my own house.
