QUOTE(Mr.Docter @ Jul 12 2017, 09:29 AM) Hey sifus! Yeah, I agree with your 2nd point, where they quote DOUBLE of your budget..I experience that too. Got to wonder what are on those ID mind when they quote such prices I am in the midst of discussing and dealing with my ID. Straightforward, the issues I faced. All, especially ID and contractors are very much welcomed to provide an constructive opinion in any way possible! |

Got to wonder what are on those ID mind when they quote such prices I actually asked the ID to came with different set of quotation, yet nil. Anyway, found a contractor that offer much less price compare to original ID. Still considering tho. |

Have to admit, you two are actually true. Its either raised the budget or lesser the expectation. I got that now. |

I bought a 1.8M house and I am IDing to a max budget of 150k. Some people will ask you to reno to certain expectation due to "save face" factor, but I say work towards whatever budget you have. If 60k, then 60k it is- who cares what price you bought the house. (As long as you don't set 600k expectation on the 60k budget la) From, A guy who is getting quotes for 300-400k when I specify ask for ID and reno complete in 150k |
