[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love our lot and our square footage and the overall “bones” of the house. Like PP’s have mentioned though, DH and I did not do a good job of communicating our expectations on home updates. We were young and naive. I assumed we would update as things aged and we could afford to. He doesn’t want to replace anything that still functions at all. As in, we have original 1992 bathrooms that we can still bathe and poop in, so to him, they are fine. We have more than enough to do the updates in cash but he just has zero interest. He’s a good egg overall but we are just mismatched here and didn’t really discuss it in advance. I won’t buy another house that needs any work unless the work is done before we move in. [/quote] Just because they are fine for him doesn’t mean they are fine for you. Why don’t you just hire the contractors yourself and do the repairs you want? You have the cash.[/quote]
