>>509044611Renovating overtime is more expensive (start-stop-start work) awful (cuz its never finished) and the end result isn't great, you'll end up with 4 different floors, 2 different kinds of paint, 3 kinds of skirting boards because in 2036 they wont have the ones u bought in 2033 and 2029.
What I did was buy a shithole, sleep on the floor for a year and DIY all day - every day - 7/7 for a year. 0 experience above average intelligence + youtube + buy DIY shit online. I did everything, floors, bathrooms, heating, 200 square meters of roof, skimming walls, smashing walls, plumbing, even my damn solar panels and electrical board. As a complete novice. Had it valued at 740K when I was done, bought it for 320 and spent 75 + One year of my time. Tradies are useless, they cost a fortune and are retarded, all of them.
Why do young people borrow 300K to pay tradies and pay it off in 10 years when they can do better than the tradies and have it all done in a year. Tradies will do a shit job because its not their home they dont care. You'll care.
You need to understand tradies are dumb, they need to study 4 years how an electrical panel works. You watch one youtube video and do it better.
