Home Improvement Costs for new house

[Robert Aiken]

Hey everyone, I'm getting ready to close the deal on a 2 bedroom 2 1/2 bathroom townhouse and I have a general idea of how much I want to put in to the house immediately. A few friends (one being a designer) have given estimates of around $20K and higher. The home is already renovated and I explained that I would like to do minimal upgrades upon moving in. I was thinking roughly around $15K. Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
