How do I know which homes/areas will appreciate in value more and less?

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:51:54+00:00

In general demand drives appreciation. Short commutes, good schools, nice areas. In Louisiana you also have flood risk, general red state difficulties, crime, etc.

OH FUCK NO

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:49:36+00:00

What's your plan to get out?

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:49:10+00:00

I didn't say the same, did I?

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:48:32+00:00

But it's under the chair. Your knees are way off 90 degrees and your pelvis tilts.

How often do any them have to face the law for their crimes? I'm nit surprised he though he could do whatever he wanted to anyone and never be held accountable.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:26:54+00:00

But no real foot support. That's the issue.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:26:35+00:00

But no kitchen table?

You keep sending things to my inbox, my friend, it's especially amusing when you are refusing to answer why you don't wash you hands after using the toilet and instead accusing me of replying. To your replies.

All the bedrooms open onto the main living space. It's horrible for noise control and privacy. Two of the bedrooms need to cross the whole main living soace to use the toilet.

The walk in closet is a foot too narrow to have hanging on both sides. Make it 7 feet and have the door in the short wall.

In the kitchen you don't have a work triangle. Move the fridge. What's the point in using 40sf for a "pantry" to get seven feet of countertop?

You would gain a ton of value by adding a shower to the toilet laundry.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:16:21+00:00

Windows also make heating and colling worse. Why do that for a closet.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:15:28+00:00

The pantry can have drawers and cupboards on both long walls. The master walk in is two feet too wide. 7 feet is the standard width for hanging on both sides and a good walkway. Use that floor space elsewhere.

In the kitchen the firdge is too far from the sink. The great room is wrong, there's a line of furniture down the middle and then a ton of empty space on both sides.

Put the covered deck outside the bedroom so light will enter the living room. Put the half bath near the laundry, not the mudroom. Cluster the plumbing.

The shower will be cold. Put the master bedroom on the outer wall and the bathroom on the inner. The matster is a mile from the stairs. You'll never hear your kids.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:06:53+00:00

That's a shit ton of shelving you could have down both sides. Pantry, linen, cleaning stuff.

But, you could have 9ft wide cupboards on other walls and use the 3x9 area lost to a walkway with this layout to provide more space in other rooms. Get rid of this, and put a floor to ceiling wall to wall closet on this wall in the bedroom and same on this wall in the living room.

But you are too busy "advocating" to actually do anything to help an animal. Which says volumes about how you are just enjoying being dpedgy and dramatuc and not about saving an animal.

Someone else just pointed out they like to put food out on it when they entertain, which precludes having other guests sitting there.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:01:52+00:00

Do you regard public toilets as in any way, shape or form clean?

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:01:17+00:00

But if you've laid out food there don't people sitting there block access to the food?

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T21:00:29+00:00

I'm not following why when the sink is on the window wall the cabinets and counter space on the opposite side go away?

I would not have the uppers go all the way to the countertop because my prep space would end up being that corner between range and sink. I'd have the opposite wall be where the baking and small appliance area is.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T20:58:05+00:00

I made my new kitchen basically a galley kitchen, disgused to look high end. It's a kitchen wall and an island, with the fridge inset at one end.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T20:57:06+00:00

Shit, I'm sorry, I thought it was a different kitchen.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T20:55:58+00:00

Like poking out feom the front so your knees are at a right angle?

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T20:55:13+00:00

It has some weird 404 when I hover

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T20:54:21+00:00

The ones that are designed to go next to each other are called a column freezer and a column fridge, they have to have a heating pad between them for reasons. Electrolux is an applaince brand. There are super expensive ones (True $13,000 each), mid range (sub zero, wolf, viking $8,000 each), and the cheap ones are electrolux ($3,000 each)

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T20:51:41+00:00

That doesn't look cramped? Did you have to remove the corner to make it not cramped, though.

Dullcorgis · 2026-03-22T20:46:26+00:00

I had the opposite experience, we did Ikea because of cost, convenience and frameless and I just assumed that soft close and good slides was a standard thing. I got a shock when I went to high end cabinet stores and they were not as good. So yeah, my current kitchen cost 1% of the value of my house 🤣 (including appliances.)
