The List

I sat down to go room by room and at first I felt okay, then it became a little overwhelming.

We had a budget for a brand new 1800 sq ft house, built by my Dad (who is 1st class) with a lot of amenities and a full walk out (finish-able) basement. I'm hoping to do these renovations and having our costs be under what it would have been to build. We'll see....

I didn't touch the outside on this list. There is quite a hefty lift for the outside, but for now I'll let it stand.
