Why do you HAVE to upgrade it NOW and make it look like something out of Martha Stewart? People are complete woosies. A 1960s or 1970s kitchen with a new stove, fridge, and dishwasher (under 2 grand) is just as functional as a modern one. Bathrooms: laying tile is cheap if there’s nasty old carpet there.
The whole “zOMG we must remodel now” thing is idiotic as long as the basic systems of the house are intact and functional.[/quote]
Not idiotic. It’s about being driven by perfection.
I’m partial to sleek euro kitchens and baths with handgrohe fixtures. More pleasing to look at everyday.[/quote]
delay delay delay. Save so much money. If I can delay some more maybe we will move before we do anything big.
If you’re sluggish it’s amazing how fast 5 years can go by without an oven. Now it’s been so long wife no longer thinks we need one!
Why replace h eating/ac …so expensive to do plus higher utility bill. Delay!!!
The biggest savings come from just not doing anything.
