Amen. One thing I learned is that size has little to do with cost. The things that add up are fixtures. A faucet might cost $120, and a window $300 or more, whereas framing in a closet might cost $50 to $75. Big empty rooms cost very little except for flooring. It's very easy to fall into the mind-trap of thinking "affordable" means "small", when it's more likely to mean "one less bathroom and inexpensive fixtures". Howard A.
