Re: The Home Improvement Thread
We're gonna have to replace our hot water heater soon. It's 15 years old and on its last leg. When we got our inspection when buying the place, the inspector said we should replace it immediately, and that was 3 years ago. Just having two of us helps I guess. I was curious about getting a tankless, but the cost of conversion and installation is ridiculous, and with only two of us in the house, there's no way that cost would ever be recouped.

Those tankless heaters are ridiculously expensive to service.

That's how much he put up in escrow when he signed the purchase agreement on his new house. The balance of the purchase price was put in a suitcase and slid across the table at closing.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:i have a hard time believing you don't have at least 260k in savingsdoug rr wrote:i'm tapped out now, lennylennytheweedwhacker wrote:i usually don't like to ask for this kind of thing, but could you pay off my mortgage?doug rr wrote:oh heavens yes but home reno is not my thing..I leave that to the proslennytheweedwhacker wrote:have your hands ever been dirty?doug rr wrote:we're gonna do a big bathroom reno once we move into the new place....going to rip out the large spa tub and just make a giant walk in shower..well, I'm not gonna do it but someone is
