Not sure how much renovations cost in the UK, but here in Norway they can be ridiculously expensive IMO. A -7 m^2 bathroom alone can easily cost you £30k-£40k when using pros - and a bathroom needs to get renovated every 10-15 years.
I think there's good money in renting and flipping, but in the long term there's a lot of costs involved, even if you're quite the handyman that can fix most things yourself.
- lotsofpulp 7y agoThat is crazy to me. Watch a few hours of YouTube videos, and one can do it yourself a bathroom 10 times for that cost in the USA, and you’d be an expert at it by the end. Also, I don’t see why a bathroom needs to be renovated every 10 to 15 years. Cast iron tub and porcelain toilets and sinks don’t go bad.
- jfk13 7y ago> I don’t see why a bathroom needs to be renovated every 10 to 15 years Yes, that struck me as crazy, too. Some minor maintenance and redecorating from time to time, sure. But a multi-thousand-pound renovation every decade? Not if it was built decently in the first place, and cared for sensibly through the years.
