It wasn't that long that I blogged about "Our Unfinished House in Laguna", also when I was on the process of choosing "Fashionable Curtains for this House", other than anything else buying FURNITURES was not on my list of things yet to be done, not just yet! By the way, the house hasn't been completely finished yet, they are still working on patios and gate, garden and wall finishing on the outside. But we're getting there....
However, plans may have had changed but I was quite happy with the result! I knew from the very beginning the type of wood to buy when it comes to furnitures, beddings, etc... However, I didn't realize I HAD SPENT SO MUCH (on furnitures alone) THAT LED ME TO SHORTAGE FOR THE HOUSE COMPLETION! Well, I didn't realize too they were that expensive! Yet, I haven't even bought the curtains I wanted! They just bought temporary ones after I realized I had nothing left! Oh dear...
So now I declare myself as BANKRUPT! lol.... But no regrets at all, I promise....:)
You may have noticed that I've been busy grabbing opps... EVERY LITTLE HELPS... hahahahaha
Have you ever remodeled your house? Normally this includes the top two changes; that of a new kitchen and bathroom, but there is more. On our case, we did our kitchen first and we haven't done anything about our bathroom yet. Remodeling a house involves a lot of decision making process. One of the most important is the financial aspect or the cost of the renovation. Renovations can prove to be very expensive and it is important that you are able to mange the costs involved in the renovation. However, there are also major considerations that you need to look at even before you decide to renovate.
Once you have decided to renovate your home, you must then be able to review the bids and quotations that potential contractors and builders like the Baltimore Remodeling. Apparently, they specialize in the following fields:- Working with you to design a floor plan to present to an architect, saving you hundreds of dollars.
- Building custom and modular homes, do total rehabs, build additions and garages and do interior and exterior remodeling.
- Erecting and completin modular homes, both stock and custom floor plans, with North American Housing Corp.
- Building decks, patios, carports and fences.
See their website: www.northamericanhousing.com, they are registered with the State of Maryland Housing Rehab Project.
The bids that are submitted to you should include the cost of construction materials, the cost of construction labor, permit fees, decorating the remodeled part, the cost of repairs due to remodeling and cleaning up after remodeling. It is important the contractors and builders submit accurate and specific figures on all costs so that you can consider all aspects of the cost.
Having your own home will sooner or later lead you to the desire of remodeling a room or two, especially if you weren’t designing the house. It can be anything from replacing the ventilation system to adding an extra small room, changing your bathroom or kitchen structure, etc... Remodeling can be fun and exciting, sometimes can be very stressful especially if you budget or plan your own, exactly the same as what I have just experienced!
Apparently, my husband and I decided to remodel our house that we bought 5 years ago since it has never been occupied and it looked as though repairs was horribly needed before it was gonna be too late. Even if no one is going to stay there in the end, it would however increase the valuation of the property.
