I kept buying stocks for 3 years and when the day came to get engaged I used that money to buy the ring.

Keep listening to the podcasts, and engage with others.

In addition to moisture/mold issues, I wanted to add also that if you have any laminate or vinyl plank flooring, the warranty can become useless and flooring damaged if the temperature is not kept at certain levels. 

I am considering floating vinyl plank flooring that looks like wood, tile countertops & backsplash, new stainless steel appliances, fresh paint, new fixtures & outlet covers & a standard laminate countertop for the bathroom vanity.

I will continue to research what is best for our family and look forward to engaging everyone in the future!

I'm currently in the process of trying LVP, luxury vinyl planks.

@Clayton Plank The neighborhood does indeed have a good healthy mix of houses that have ADU's not sure how many of them have attached ADU's, I have designed the structure to be used as and ADU but can be changed in the future back to a single use dwelling should a future owner ever wish to change it.
