How to Renovate Your Park City Home Remotely

by | Jun 20, 2026 | Modern Interior Design Ideas

Many of the most beautiful homes in Park City are owned by people who live somewhere else most of the year. They bought in Deer Valley or Promontory for the skiing, the summer hiking, and the mountain lifestyle. But when it comes time to renovate or furnish those homes, the distance creates real logistical challenges.

That's where we come in. Living with Lolo is a full-service interior design and general contracting firm that specializes in managing high-end projects on behalf of out-of-state clients. We are their eyes, ears, and decision-making proxy on the ground.

What Remote Project Management Actually Looks Like

Before construction begins, we complete a detailed scope document covering every finish, fixture, and design decision. This document becomes the bible for the project and eliminates the most common source of delays: decisions made too late. During construction, we visit the site for every critical milestone and send weekly video updates. We handle all communication with contractors, subs, and the city permit office.

Furnishing and Final Installation

We source all FF&E (furniture, fixtures, and equipment) through our trade accounts, manage receiving and white-glove delivery, and complete the final installation and styling while the client is traveling. The goal is that you walk in the door and it is exactly what you envisioned. No boxes to unpack. No art to hang. No rugs rolled up in the corner.

For Park City homes, renovation investments typically start at $2.5 million for full construction scopes and $400,000 to $1 million or more for furnishing scopes, depending on home size and finish level.

Lauren Lerner and the Living with Lolo team have refined a remote project management process that keeps out-of-state clients informed and in control at every stage. Named Best Interior Design by Phoenix Magazine in 2024, 2025, and 2026, Lauren Lerner operates under ROC #347577 and uses detailed scheduling, shared sourcing portals, and regular video walkthroughs to keep Park City renovations on track from Scottsdale.

Living with Lolo handles every coordination point, from contractor scheduling to final installation, so clients in Park City, Deer Valley, and Promontory never have to manage the details themselves. Living with Lolo's remote renovation process has made it possible for clients across the country to transform their mountain properties without being on-site full time.
