Hiring that part out and im installing bathroom vanities myself. 

At the core of the OPs conversation what were really talking about is building a DIY version of VRBO/ABB.

I have already intervened and issued a notice about no-smoking policy, spoken to each one of them about this issues, also installing traceable smoke detectors to help with the smoke situation.

There is an optimal length between these two scenarios and that is what a correct install is.  

Hello guys,What is a reasonable price for a gas furnace replacement (e.g Carrier), including installation?

Craig's list and eBay over time DIY (who knows).....Upscale heavily decorated costs money.In many cases DIY can save about 50% in labor, but high end unique things will require workers with specialized (more costly) skills.To get the Look you want, the best way to accomplish a tied together "Feeling" is to get with an 'Interior Decorator" or Architect who does this style, and bounce the cost questions off of that person.There is no way to tell....is the animal skin bead spread $30 from a yard sale or $3,000 at Nordstrom's carpet department in Seattle?

Install a dehumidifier in the crawl.

There is approximately 5 miles of track installed. 

Two concerns with it:  1. not sure if I can expect to be able to refinance with 80-75% LTV on the after-repair value  2. inefficiencies likely to arise replacing plaster with insulation+drywall and installing super basic kitchen, when ultimate plan is to replace floors and put in a nice kitchen. 

But the cost to install and Maintenace of the grout lines is what I don't like.
