You purchased the home and now are adding in all these improvements to make yourself happy. Personally, I would buy a new home that already has the quartz and better flooring installed, so I don't have to deal with contractors and the mess.

Hi- appreciate you taking the time out of your busy day to read and reply to my thread - Yeah, those few items are not House-specific, but I decided to include to be helpful to those outside of TV, to consider to add to their total over-all budget, if they fit their circumstances.
It took me six attempts to land a house in Richmond. Of course, I would have preferred to have had flooring and counters to match what I wanted, but that was not possible for me. One did not have the luxury of being selective and taking their their time to find the perfect home when new houses were selling in Richmond. Almost every new house sold within two hours of being listed. If I hadn’t been as fortunate to have landed my current home, I would not have been able to have secured a new home in Richmond, which is something I really wanted. I knew, I was going to have to budget for some contractor work as a compromise, and I was OK with that.
Sounds like, something you would not have done, so that’s OK. We all have different desires and wants when it comes to our own houses - no “one way’ is the right way - I’m very happy with my decision, and I am happy for you with the decisions you have made, though they may not be my own. 😀
