    Especially!

    Get 'em while they still low priced in the sanctuary cities of Boise, Spokane, Bozeman, Missoula, Post Falls, CDA.

    GTFO of Seattle and Portland before prices collapse.

    My Seattle house is up $30K since we sold per Zillow. Never underestimate what a progressive buyer will put up with.

    There is an agent advertising out of San Diego and his pitch is with all the people leaving California he is your guy, He's sold 11 homes over ask for families who want to LEAVE and did it in three weeks or less

    So - someone had to buy all those houses and STAY didn't they?

    What kind of dumb would want to leave San Diego? Best weather in the history or the universe.

    the only bad thing is the state it is located in. I lived in lovely Chula Vista for a year.

    Ex-boyfriend and I went to San Diego for Valentine’s Day thinking this. It poured down rain the entire time we were there.

    So my wife's probably gonna leave me if I don't get our fugly 16 year old black tile counter tops replaced. They are pretty bad and even @PurpleBaze has better counter tops than me. We would also need to get a new sink - farmhouse of course because every wife in America wants one - along with new back splash. The cabinets are fine and can stay and no electrical needs to be moved.

    While I have average level handy man skillz around the house, I don't know shit about pulling together a remodel. What's the best way to coordinate such a project? Are there kitchen remodel specialists who you can tell what you want an they GC the whole thing? Or does one have to hire out each part of the project separately?

    I look forward to getting some great free advice from the bored.


    I would leave you too. The kitchen is important. Get that shit goin

    You could call us and get it all including new cabinets for 20 to 30 k. If we were in Oregon

    Get a reputable kitchen remodeling company that acts as the GC. Don't do it yourself.

    Get more than one price and check references. Trust no one. Don't pay over 30 percent up front. Balance when it passes your wife's punch list.

    Put a timeline in the agreement

    Ok @RaceBannon so I'm almost done with my interior painting which has made a huge difference. We're talking a nice interior designer down the street to help my wife figure out the grand vision. They will recommend an kitchen remodeling GC or three for me to chat with.

    You still think 30K will get someone new granite countertops, sink, backsplash, fridge, downdraft range/oven AND decent new cabinets? Again, medium size kitchen we're talking about here. It seems like the non real wood cabinets have gone up a lot in quality of late.
