I’m trying to help renovate a really quaint house in the middle of a nice neighborhood. The house has 3 bedrooms, one bathroom [possibly 2, after renovation], a nice kitchen, and a dining room. There’s an outside utility room as well. I’ve got to choose colors and flooring…
What attracted you to your own home when you bought it? Any suggestions on color combinations that tend to be universally pleasing to a home-buyer?
Thanks!
They have infested both bathrooms, kitchen and spreading fast. Just curious how they came in? We have had screen windows open a lot and we recently tore out the plumbing/tile in one bath having plumbing & under the house openings. Renovation almost complete. Could these be the source?
I live in Chicago and the housing market here is crazy. I don’t want to spend 30 years paying off a home I could barely afford.
There are several houses owned by the state for sale for 5-10,000 cash only .
They are in horrible condition from the pictures Ive seen however a few look like they have good bones and decent exteriors.
me and my husband are prepared to take it slowly 2-3 years and will not buy one which has water or termite damage. We will have it looked at first by an inspector.
We are anticipating
the following
new roof, new interior walls, bathroom renovation, kitchen renovation , floors, electrical repairs and plumbing repairs
We will hire cheap labor for most of the easy stuff but the biggies we will have professionals do the work.
What is the minimum cost price range to do these jobs on a tight budget ?
We will buy a single story home brick exterior approximately 1200-1600 sq ft
This is not a flip so we are taking our time and the point is to make it livable at
