Well, titty sprinkle you too I guess.

I'm with Guy. Save up for the new place. The concrete costs are crazy.

I put ABC seamless siding on my old house to the tune of $40,000. I know I likely didn't get any of that out of it when I sold it 3 months ago. Rather pisses me off as my sister put the same siding on in West Fagro and it cost her less than half from the same effing ABC company

In hindsight, that was an incomplete statement by me. If you spend $15k to try and boost your home value by $20k, I think you will find out quickly that you are only going to boost the actual sale price by $8-12k.

This was the what I had learned/read as I prepared to sell my last home. And I know of at least one person going through this same experience in today's housing market. Guy's comment on paint and trim to boost curb appeal is spot on. Don't do anything structural/invasive or you will likely lose money.

Well, thanks for all the advice guys. Probably just hold onto the cash.
