I figure the granite will be a nice touch. Maybe a shade over board. But since I am putting all these other upgrades in the house. Figured it would be worth the investment.
Unfortunately, because of the configuration, I do not think I would be able to pull that off. Where the kitchen table would go is over by the living room. As for the dishes washing, that is what the dishwasher is for, or a woman.
You can't see it in picture, but there is a dishwasher across from the fridge. Plus I have a garbage disposal. So keeps all that filth to a minimum.
I am not planning to live here more than 4 years if everything works as planned, should be on west coast at least part time if all goes well. However, my sister may end up living in it once I am done. Or I will use it as a house for shoots. It will definitely be one of the nicest houses in my neighborhood, if not THEE nicest once all is completed... roof, windows, and such outside as well as all this work on the inside.
Once reappraised, it should be a nice little $60-70k+ plus equity line
easily. Even
with the current market conditions, and considering what houses in this neighborhood (similar bi-level's) go for.
