Artist Needs More Space

Piper Mavis is a 1960s woman trapped in the modern world. She loves to collect vintage things and display them in her one-bedroom, one-bath apartment. As an artist and photographer, she sees her apartment as a blank canvas. Since moving in, she's done a lot to the place by painting, adding some neat light fixtures and creating a collage of vintage photos she hand framed. The problem is she can't do much more to this rental without losing her security deposit. Space is also a concern. She needs to find a larger home, and this time, she wants to own instead of rent. It's a big step for this first-timer, so she'll rely heavily on real estate agent Meredith Wick.
