Dd and partner are imminently about to complete on a house purchase. The house is in a great location , but needs almost everything doing to it - think manky carpets, discoloured wood chip wallpaper, one dated bathroom unusable due to leaks , the other is useable but also dated, kitchen 1970s but not in a good way, boiler working but old and in the wrong place, radiators old and need replacing, garden overgrown with broken decking. They could only afford a dooer upper, certainly one this size in this location - similar houses in this area are 100k + more. After the purchase they will have about 20k left to spend immediately, the rest will be have to be done bit by bit, plus they’ll need furniture to fill it up! What would you get done first?
