The Typical U.S. Home Is 44 Years Oldโ€”And Needs Tons of Work - WSJ https://www.wsj.com/personal-finance/the-typical-u-s-home-is-44-years-oldand-needs-tons-of-work-a1fd89ea?st=7FejZx&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink Free link. "Financial advisers traditionally suggested setting aside 1% of a homeโ€™s value annually for upkeep, but many now argue that isnโ€™t enough. While 1% may cover routine upkeep, 2% to 3% provides a more realistic cushion for expected maintenance, home-improvement projects and unexpected repairs, particularly for older homes" #homeownership #costs

Today's big excitement was ordering a burning barrel to replace the decrepit concrete one my parents had installed decades ago.

Yippee. #Homeownership #YardMaintenance

I often debate about #DIY or buy with larger projects. Right now I'm debating taking on putting in a new heat pump by myself or hiring it done.

Will wait for the quote to decide.
