JEFF L., NASHVILLE TN

"Daniel & his team have taken such good care of me for over ten years. I've moved three times and he's always so great at making all the tech headaches disappear so I can just sit back & relax. The peace of mind knowing he's keeping everything secure is priceless. Plus he manages all the other contractors & trades so I don't have to."

What they're saying

  • There's no way that I could live without this incredible lighting system. You can have nice white task oriented light during the day. Then in the evening, when you have a glass of wine and you want something more laid back, you can have the lights work with you for setting that kind of mood as well. I would not give this system up now

  • Mastermind keeps all our systems working at all our properties. If it plugs in, they're watching over it & making sure everything stays secure. When there's issues we usually hear from Daniel & the team first before we even notice it. Now that's service
