Which renovation project is the worst to DIY?

We’ve all been lost in a Home Depot before, even though we hate to admit it! When wandering around, who else has thought they can be the best Home “do it yourself” Renovator?

Home DIY projects seem to be a complete home run for your investment if done carefully, but can also be a complete disaster if not done correctly.

What has been the hardest/worst DIY project in your Real Estate Investing career?

What project has scared you the most that you need more information on?

Kitchen or Bathroom remodel🚽
Building a new addition/Adding ADU🏘️
Basement remodel🚿
Exterior Updates🏡
Painting🎨

I would have to go with a kitchen remodel.  With open concept becoming the standard.  Moving electrical, plumbing and load bearing walls requires a good deal of knowledge.  Budgeting becomes paramount in this arena and surprises are always around the corner.
