He is needing a new roof. Reminder his home is average-whatever that means.
He figures 25,000 for a roof. He figures what investments he will sell to raise that.
Selling investments, will cost him dividends-money coming in. Budget? I do not either.
People do not usually BUDGET for a 25,000 roof or AC replacement not sure and debate is a waste of time-about 7,000. A true cost per month everything has a life span.
Guess we are different, 2 of our homes were new, so budget little different than the preowned we bought. I budgeted for new roof, new HVAC (just replaced) new flooring, paint, and adding larger birdcage. But then again any house anywhere will need the same budget, except maybe a birdcage
