This week's episode is a classic from the Mid Mod Remodel archive.

The common wisdom is that you should save up money for a remodel and then plan one that fits your budget. Wrong.

I want to pitch an alternate plan. It os better to let the design drive the budget, rather than the other way around. Let's talk about diving into your master plan before you decide what your home update should cost.

Look, your Home Remodel can be:

FastCheap Good

You may pick two. Seriously.

And while I totally appreciate the desire to keep costs down, I never want to encourage anyone to pick Fast and Cheap as their priorities over GOOD. I’m not saying you should make a Sky’s the Limit design and then wonder what it will cost you. I like a hybrid approach. Keep your ballpark budget in mind. But rather than asking “How much kitchen can I get for $XXX?", spend the time to think about what you really want from your home.
