I'm not saying you can't contract out work and make more than the costs,

just for reference, here's the quote that started our discussion:
[ QUOTE ]


something that hasn't really been mentioned is adding value to your home yourself. we got our apt pretty cheap but the kitchen/bathroom weren't really nice, etc. so a year ago we redid the kitchen ourselves and it's really nice now and will definitely add more to the value of the apt than what it cost us.

This is a huge misconception and is entirely untrue.

what exactly are you saying then? maybe our definitions of "entirely untrue" differ in some strange way [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. this seems to be a very straightforward exchange of me asserting it's possible to add value to your house through renovations, and you saying my assertion is false. if I am incorrect on this, let me know where.
