We actually sold one of the 5 acres however it had a 20 thousand sq ft Butler metal building and we sold that to someone in the Wine business actually for Champagne Ridling machines he had invented.

Where is all the new stuff that we had delivered to install?  

You just install window units until the central AC is fixed.Done and done.

One wants to install a used refrigerator to save money, while the other wants a new refrigerator with a warranty.

But I have not met all the gurus out there.That’s my bias on the subject, in a nutshell.

I think new cabinets would be around 3000 fully installed.

For the kitchen remodel, for all labor and installation = $20k.  

Some ways to work with a designer to lower costs would be to have them only do selections and you perform the ordering and installations.

Did someone install too small a system, did the Freon leak out, are the air filters dirty. 

The $30,000 will just about cover the entire mini-split installation and at the end of it the well have fully separated heating that the residents can now pay for.
