Planning a renovation?
Make sure that your #renovation is taking shape in line with your growing savings account.
Renovations invariably attract extra expenses, so if budgets are tight, putting aside a regular weekly amount, however meagre, will be a welcome relief upon project completion.
When your contractor and design plans are firmly in place, the next step is to devise a mutually agreeable (and contractually stipulated) timeline. Of course, leeway for small timing blowouts is often perfectly natural and usually accountable, so long as they don’t affect your bottom line.
Doing your research pays dividends at renovation and sale time.
Invest the time and, more often than not, you’ll be the winner.
