[quote=Anonymous]Do you plan on living in it during the fixing up period? If yes, then you are out of your mind. I would be very concerned about the dust (lead, asbestos, general construction dust) and paint fumes floating through the house with very small children, or really anyone, living there. Renovation brings the word 'filth' to a whole new level. You can't escape it. If you aren't going to live there, then simply dealing with the stress of working with contractors might be enough to say its a bad idea when you layer on top of that the toddler and one on the way. I did significant renovations to my house while working full time and then had a now toddler and a baby so I have lived through both of theses events and I would never voluntarily do them at th same time. If you don't plan on living there and you plan on contracting out everything, then it's doable. Otherwise you get an emphatic no from me. [/quote]
