No, I just do a lot of stuff myself. I could do better than that kitchen for $5,000 with some smart shopping and elbow grease. I redid the floors, bathroom, and kitchen in an 1860s cabin for that much back in 2013

Yes, 2013 is indeed the past. Inflation, shrinkflation, and price gouging has driven prices up and quality down

2013 was over a decade ago we've went through both a housing crisis and record levels of inflation since then.

Yeah that’s why I can only do the kitchen for five grand and not the whole house
