      It would help if you had some pictures of the rooms you were thinking about renovating. I am a realtor and see lots of houses with lots of different floor plans and decor. I also just got done doing some minor renovation at a house I just bought. Not very much fun, but learned a lot. If you feel comfortable shoot me a line or maybe post some pictures.

      That actually is a good price, construction cost have been increasing steadily. You can get it done cheaper but probably with substandard workmanship. The place to start is to draw up some plans with a designer and then have 3 companies bid on it. Make sure they are licensed and insured and go for it. 3mo. from now it will be all done.
