What We Are Up Against
As I mentioned in the first post, we now have a 1960’s era ranch house that is sorely in need of updating. My wife and I bought the house fully aware of it’s various needs (and our various wants). We have tackled the updating of an older ranch house before, so this was a eyes wide open sort of purchase.
We estimated the cost of the renovations at roughly $10,000. This includes (but is not limited to):
- Updating the kitchen
- Painting every room
- Updating every bathroom
The kitchen renovations can be broken down further:
- Paint paneled walls and cabinetry
- New countertops
- New appliances
- New fixtures (lighting and plumbing)
- New hardware for cabinets
- Install ceramic tile on the floor
- New backsplash
That seems like an awful amount of work, but it’s not really that bad. We’ve already tackled several of them and I will tell you more about that later.
