It’s NOT Just About Kitchens and Baths

Not Just About Kitchens - Improvenet - MyFixitUpLife

While it’s taken to mean ‘generally accepted,’ the term ‘conventional wisdom’ was not meant as a compliment. It meant that people see things as ‘true’ because they’re easy to understand, not because they’re right.‣ MyFixitUpLife Not Just About Kitchens and baths - Improvenet - MyFixitUpLife

However, insult or not, nuggets of truth laden in broad ideas become accepted because, well, they’re true. –ish.

Like kitchens and baths sell houses.

In the houses I’ve remodeled and sold as part of my contracting business (and life plan), it’s no doubt true that a nice kitchen and sensible bathroom helped sell them. And sell them faster.

But it’s also like saying ‘wheels and bumpers sell cars.’ Nobody thinks that’s true.

For my money, and for the majority of homes I’ve worked on, it’s better to think of a house holistically. It’s not a star system of rooms vying for the most glory. It’s a whole team working together toward a common goal; a quick sale at a good price.
