How I went over budget by 70k on a rehab.

Then I also had to get architectural drawings as well- decided that since I was spending so much money we should move the laundry room upstairs and move the bathroom to a new location.I don’t know if any other post has ever stressed the BUY RIGHT but if there hasn’t been one let this be the first- Typically someone who goes over budget by so much is usually left broke and crushed under the weight of it all- Luckily I had enough cash and the ability to complete the rehab and get from under it and not let it stop me from doing other projects.Will post before and after pics shortly.
