Our place: 30 years old, washrooms/kitchen last updated 10-20 years ago.
Bathroom: bought 120$ worth of glue on floor, 100$ sink, 70$ of cabinet and counter "marble" + "wood" wrap, 70$ in paint, 80$ new faucet, 80$ in fake plants, new shitter 200$.
16hrs-ish hours later, and the bathroom went from grandma lives here to lets fuck on the counter.
Kitchen: ours was decent minus the sink, spent 600$ for a new sink, faucet, piping, thats all we needed.
Took about 5hrs for sink including abs drain pipe, new feed lines, cutting out the counter larger, etc.
I do have most tools i needed for all the above, if i did not, probably add 500$ to the above bills. If you havent done any work on water lines and drain piping, careful, its very easy to cause water damage. Not rocket science tho.....
The above was completed within 2 weeks of moving in.
You can easily transform any "old" room for 1000$, and make it look great, while you wait to save up 10-30k for a proper reno. (Or 30-60k for you rich RS folk.)
