[quote=Anonymous]You don't need to go to any home depot workshops -- most people don't do home repairs on their own. The standard advice is to plan on spending 1% of the house value every year on maintenance (so about $13K), and that's good advice. Just know that some years might be much higher, and some much lower. Dealing with contractors in this area is pretty awful (even a 1-hour appointment for a minor issue seems to cost $500), but you can ask for recommendations from neighbors and there are tons of reviews out there (yelp, checkbook, google, angies list, nextdoor).[/quote]
