I also thought it'd be good to get first-hand experience of how much effort certain things were to do.I've already done a few things in the past like:- Tearing out carpet and replacing the entire floor with wood laminate- Painting an entire interior- Painting kitchen cabinets- Resurfacing a laminate countertop with concrete- Replaced a toiletI'd like to learn a bit more, like:- laying tile- replacing a window- replacing a light fixture / switch- potentially retiling a portion of a roofWhile I don't see myself doing all these things for future investments, I think that having a good understanding of what it takes to do each one gives me good leverage and experience when negotiating with contractors.
