i dont own mine yet but will in 25 years, i just remortgaged to do a refurb but my house is still worth twice as much as i owe.
i live in a very old victorian terraced house that takes a lot of upkeep so i thought i'd do it all in one go along with making the layout better and more suitable for my needs.
i also spent an extra $10000 of my own money which was my contingency for the building work but i got some toys and stuff and furniture to finish it off.
i am very skint now
