It wasn’t a quick process—buying a house (and getting a mortgage) aren’t things that move quickly, generally. But once we mov

    The Renovation Dilemma: What to Fix If You're Selling

    It's always a Sisyphean task to set a budget for a renovation—or at the very least an ever-moving target—but if you're planning to put your home on the market, you'll have a way different set of calculations than a starry-eyed new homeowner.
