I wonder where ppl get the finances to do a full overhaul of their home.

Been seeing them a lot lately.

Any experienced ppl can give advice? Dreaming of renovating my current house but no money cry.gif

From savings. Although I've heard of some mortgage products which gives you more than the purchase price in order for you to spend on renovation

Friendly advise is the overhaul really necessity i.e termite attack etc otherwise pls consider thoroughly. If it’s still a go then u can consider either personal loan or refinance your property again this will result in higher commitment for considerable period

Savings. I only travel overseas for holiday once for the past 10 years, hence I saved a lot by not wasting money on traveling.

sorry to hear that bro.
First time i hear family actually encourage to renovate. Normally family (referring to parents, baby boomers) I know discourage reno because waste money blah blah.

"Got place sleep can liao lah, u too much money isit" is what my parents would say hahah

full overhaul renovation is a personal luxury, not a necessity
taking loan just for reno is like taking loan just to buy the latest iphone
there's no shortcut for this, either live within your means or get a higher paying job
