The ground is still wet but apparently its time to start. Thats the word from high up in the household chain of command.
Forget about the hockey playoffs, the start of the baseball season the number one priority is all those little household projects that have been building up all winter.
Thats the biggest problem with buying a house, all the endless home improvement projects that need to get done. I noticed that is something the real estate agents tend to forget to mention when you are buying a house.
The worst thing is that the real estate agents should have some special chart that shows you how many home improvement projects you’ll need to do based on the age of your home. In most cities you can easily find homes over 50 years old and I think it would be save to assume you’ll have 50 projects to work on once you buy the house.
That is also the other thing that the agents should be warning you about. You need to create a monthly home improvement budget. All those little projects really start to add up and if you did not properly plan for them you’ll really take a kick in the credit card statement once those bills come do. How many times do you need to see Home Depot on one monthly statement to realize you need to plan out all your home reno projects? The voice of experience here on this item, those 50 projects are going to add up to more than 50 bucks by the time you are finished!
