Average Costs

[Jennifer McElliott]

Hi Snohomish Folks,

Can anyone give me ballpark figures on costs for cosmetic remodels that they've done in the Lake Stevens (or Everett/Marysville) area?  

I'm in contract for a duplex in the area and it will require new laminate flooring (about 800 sq ft each side) and we want to replace the baseboard heating w/ wall units and probably also touching up their bathrooms w/ new toilets and tile...)  

This is the first time we're buying a unit that's not turnkey ready so this is our first foray into having to deal w/ contractors!  

Thanks in advance for any tips/insights you can offer!!!

@Natalie Kolodij - yes I did... this one happened to fall in and out of contract 3 times prior to our bid getting accepted - so now we're getting a bit of a discount on it.  This seems to be the only way we're able to pick anything of value up these days!
