Bigger master bathroom vs bigger master closet ?
We have a small master bathroom and two small closets in the master bedroom. Should we expand our master bathroom into one of the small closets leaving just one small/medium closet?

Deciding to expand your master bathroom into one of the small closets is ultimately a personal decision, as only you can decide if this is the best use of space for your needs. However, there are a few factors to consider when making this choice.
First, consider whether or not expanding the bathroom will make it more functional and comfortable for you and your family’s needs. Will it provide enough space for everyone’s toiletries and other essentials? If so, then it may be worth sacrificing one of the closets in favor of a larger bathroom. If however, you feel that having two separate closets is necessary, then expanding may not be the best use of space in this situation.
You should also think about how much time (and money) is involved in such an undertaking. Renovations can take months depending on their scope and complexity; meanwhile costs can vary greatly depending on materials used, labor hours required etc., so make sure to consult with professionals regarding all details before committing to any major changes in your home. Additionally, if renovating involves going through walls or ceilings around existing plumbing pipes/electrical wiring etc., then there could be hidden issues that might increase both cost and timeline significantly beyond what was initially expected – again consulting with a professional prior to beginning work would help estimate these variables more accurately.
Finally, determine whether or not this decision increases the resale value potential for your home should you decide to sell at some point down the road; making smart improvements now could yield greater rewards later once people start looking at properties like yours since larger bathrooms are often highly desirable features these days!
In short: expanding from two small closets into one large closet plus a larger master bath can provide improved comfort/functionality but comes with its own set of considerations including monetary investment/time commitment which should all be thoroughly evaluated before moving forward with any renovations.. Good luck!

Should I replace my hollow doors?
My house was built in 1934 but someone replaced all the the interior doors with hollow ones, not solid wood. It seems weird in this historic house. Is it worth my money to replace them all before selling? - Rick

What updates are worth it?
We're thinking of selling our condo. There are some things that are outdated or that could be updated. We don't want to waste our money on things that don't matter, but also want our condo to sell for the best possible price. So, what updates are worthwhile?
