You need to know that you can take care of your financial situation and really talk out what you think is a great financial situation before you “jump off the cliff” with people who are where you are wanting to get to.

@Eunseon Kwon   Just want to clarify, are you looking to move into the new house as your primary residence?   

I believe this can be taken care of with bleach and a power washer.  

Your best bet, other than selling, is to go over the changes carefully to ensure they were done properly.

This idea scales for any idea when you're trying to get work done on multiple properties; I need gutter work and a guards to be put on two properties, but most of these estimate generators are for a single residence.

Ultimately, my goal is asset diversification since all I have outside my primary residence it in the stock market 

We can't decide if we should sell our house and use the proceeds to buy a primary residence near the beach.

IMO the most cost-effective parts of a kitchen or bath reno, that you could pay yourself in labor vs. pay a contractor would be 1) careful demo and cleanup, 2) painting or skimcoating, 3) re-using existing materials/accessories or using refurbished ones in a clever way (e.g. re-use existing cabinets and painting them)

This would be our new primary residence.

I would like to take advantage of using it as my primary residence for 2 years so that way i can take advantage of not paying capital gains after 2 years of living their.
