If a 3' square section was already damaged, I would deduct that from the total cost.Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) is the way to go.

For the reserves to replace components a decade or two out, I was hoping to get us into some exposure into an index fund (total bond, total stock, SP 500) or something but left the board before I could convince folks.

Wow, wish you had started this in San Diego.

I'd like to make some rental friendly upgrades and upgrades In general to my 1910 home but don't know where to start.
