Help answer the question about living room improvement
Cost of built-in bookcases in a living room?I know this will depend on so many things–type of wood, size, height, and depth of shelving. Some examples would be useful. I need to come up with some home improvement estimates for a lender quickly, and local contractors are not getting back to me as quickly as I'd like.
Here's what I'm imagining…
- Two book cases built into the wall, separated in the middle by an existing window.
- 9 feet to the ceiling
- 4 feet wide, for each bookcase

You've finished baby step 3.
Now Dave Ramsey would say you should be putting 15% of your income away for retirement, starting with matching 401k funds, then ROTH IRA's, then back to the 401k if you max out the ROTH and have more to invest. (Baby Step 4)
If you have kids, start saving for their college. He never specifies an amount on this topic, but you need to decide how much you want to help your kids and how much you can afford to help your kids. Its okay if they have to work a part time job and go to a cheaper state college, you don't owe them a $100,000 degree. This is baby step 5. Skip this step if you don't have kids or they're already out of college.
Baby step 6 is to pay extra on the home mortgage until you pay it off.
You do baby steps 4, 5 & 6 all at the same time. If you don't have enough money to do all of them, it probably means you are still living beyond your means and you either need to cut expenses or increase your income.
OUTSIDE of all baby steps, you treat home improvements like any other expense. You save what you can toward these expenses, and pay cash for them once you have enough saved up. Home improvements are not part of the baby steps, they are like any other expense in life: you give them a priority based on how important they are, and then you save up and pay for them with cash.
EDIT: I have occasionally heard Dave say that the 15% figure is pre-tax. However he also says that the number is a litle bit soft, you don't have to be at exactly 15%, this is simply the average amount that will typically put you on a good track toward retirement, without tying up too much of your income and preventing you from doing things like putting your kids through college, paying off the house, or doing reasonable home improvements.

THanks Grady! I am now a master at taping!!

where do they find these guys? DO they actually get padi for this?
If you had people looking at the house but not making offers then the problem is most likely staging. The price must have been around the going market rate to get the people in to look at the house, they just didn't like what they were seeing. Did you discuss staging with your Realtor?
Renting is an option. So is spending the money to fix it up to sell. I look at it this way, if you are willing to rent it out at a $600/month loss for 3 years then you are talking about $21,600. Do you think that the property will go up in value by $21,600 over the next 3 years?
If not, then you will lose money by renting. Factor in any vacancy where you have to cover the whole mortgage payment, or any repairs that may need to be done and you are taking a potential bath here.
if you expect the house to appreciate more than $21,600 then you will need to look at what will need to be done after 3 years of a tenant living in the property to clean it up to make it presentable for someone to want to buy it.
You may well be better off spending some money now to get it sold. Moving the pool table, curtains, fresh paint in neutral colors, rearrangement of the furniture to allow for good fill but not clutter will go a long way in selling the house. If all the houses for sale have decks, then you should put one on as well to keep in line with the competition. Don't look at it as spending money for someone else's enjoyment. It's spending money to get the place sold. Sometimes you need to spend money to make money.
Good Luck!

Lol haha. Only rookies use the blue tape. Only when you become an expert is when you can use the yellow tape. So when I see someone using a yellow tape I will know that they are the experts, lol.
Honestly, it sounds like he grew up a little spoiled and never had to do things around the house (take that one up with his parents! lol) You're going to have to find a gentle, quiet way to instill a since of pride about his home in him. My husband was kind of the same when he was younger and I blamed it on the fact that we grew up differently. He got paid to mow the lawn or do things, I was just expected to do it. He was looking for a reward and my reward has always been the finished product. I think at some point he realized that I wasn't going to stop until things were done and now he's more into it.
I also learned to do things on my own and there was a little guilt when I was ripping a room apart to paint it while he was on the couch…..
That being said, there are still things that he wont do (or I wont allow him to do) painting is one of them (he's awful at it). I would never ask him to put curtains up (maybe the rod) and he would honestly rather take a bullet in the head than go shopping for "house stuff" with me.
Pick your battles. If he doesn't want to be part of the process (and many men don't) of picking out things for the house, do it yourself. When you need his help, tell him. If he claims he doesn't know how to do something (or you need help too) the internet is a great resource.
My husband is pretty helpful now and we talk about projects before we take them on. Sometimes, if he needs motivation, I'll mention that I'm getting an estimate on getting something done. He's either too cheap or prideful because the thought of another man in the house doing something that he COULD do…..kills him…lol
Good luck
I think he should have just said he ran out of blue tape instead of saying that only experienced and expert painters use yellow tape, haha. he even cold the paint brush a duster, lol this guy is smoking crack.
I'm from PA so I don't know if CA is different. I'm pretty sure that it is illegal to evict you for that little fight you had. If you have a lease and haven't violated the terms, I don't believe they can evict you anyway. They can't come into your apartment unless you or one of your roommates said it was okay. And even if your roommates let them in, they shouldn't touch your stuff or move it. If you have seperate rooms, then they shouldn't be in your room unless they ask you.
I have found a new purpose in life.
To rattle off one of these facts everytime someone asks me for spare change.
Yea I think it sucks too, and it pisses me the Hell off to find that you have to use actual money to purchase upgrades. No reward points for beating a game in a certain time or wining X amount of matches online; ACTUAL I GO TO WORK AND WORK HARD MONEY! Do they not understand our economy, we can barley afford a loaf of bread let alone a virtual one.
good tips!
