The New and Improved Moore House

After nearly 6 months and $40,000, the reconstruction and renovations to our house are 98% finished! We have learned quite a few lessons along the way ...

1) insurance is (obviously) extremely important, 2) never take the first offer, and 3) remodeling always takes longer than the contractor estimates (to name just a few)!

We are still working on purging the attic, putting back up photos and deciding how to reorganize/decorate some of the rooms, but the photos below show our progress.
