We went for a house that was a little on the higher side (price wise) to say from spending even more on renovations.

That's what we tried to do also. I didn't want to walk into a house that I had to completly renovate.

We are building an apartment in our basement and the trips to Home Depot are really annoying. Thank god I didn't have to deal with that in my living space.

Luckily a lot was done to our house before we moved in and my husband is very handy and also is an electrician. So we do a lot ourselves. And my DH also knows a lot of construction people, so we get good deals. We rarely pay full price for stuff. We look for sales, deals, clearance, etc.

Luckily DH bought a 2 family house on Staten Island about 8 years ago and we have a tenant upstairs, although they just told us today they bought a house. I hate to see them go, looking for tenants is no fun and they have been there for 5 years. After we just renovated our apartment, now we have to renovate theirs upstairs Chat Icon
