HappsParticipant
I appreciate your insightful replies. A house down the street in my 16 year old tract house community (where every house looks identical) was just sold and the new owner hired a construction company to completely remodel/redo the interior. This past week has been the demolition phase, whereby the construction company truck has hauled pretty much everything away from carpet, interior doors, walls, toilets, counter tops, etc away. The inside of the house has been completely gutted and looks like a war zone right now and I couldn’t imagine anyone living there during the process.
Remodeling a 16 year old house right after purchase and before move-in is the best time to complete this task to minimize inconvenience and hassle, but for those who bought 8-16 years ago and now must decide between remodeling vs moving it’s more stressful. It’s difficult to imagine how you would do complete a remodel of all new flooring, new kitchen with appliances, new bathrooms, new windows, and new paint with a house full of furniture and “stuff” that could get stolen.

HappsParticipantI’ve obtained quotes from six different vinyl window installation companies for identical product and they are all within $200 of each other. Kind of disappointed and feel like the window industry is fixed. Not sure whether it’s worth it to spend $2000 to replace two large living room windows.

HappsParticipantAre the Weber Q200 portable grills good quality and do they hold up to rust? I’ve done research on regular sized under $200 grills that are commonly sold at home improvement stores and they are not of good quality. I will only be using this grill for three months along the coast and need something that can hold up to rust. I’m also thinking if I were to buy an originally $700 grill for $200 used that it might be of better quality material that will hold up better to rust. Just have to figure out transportation.

HappsParticipantThanks for the explanation. Since it’s a private landlord based program in SD County, I suppose then it’s up to the landlord and apartment manager to enforce quality of life issues in the complex. So ultimately the neighbors are at the mercy of the landlord. IF you do an internet search on Section 8 crime, there is still a propensity for higher crime in a Section 8 complex vs non, despite the criminal background checks of the tenants. I hope the project on Sierra Ave in Solana Beach won’t end up in disrepair and residents afraid to walk by.
