A complete reference journal of home improvement and repair expenses for today's responsible, busy and cost-conscious home owner! Measuring 8.5" x 11" in size, this information-packed journal includes a directory of preferred contractors, an index of completed home improvement projects and repairs, expense sheets for do-it-yourself projects, and detailed project description pages for 40 unique projects. We've also included graph paper for you to rough-sketch ideas or use them for before/after photos or photos from magazines that provide inspiration. Additionally, you'll find pages dedicated to paint colors and room usage so that you'll always remember that you chose "Misty Morning" for the living room and "Afternoon Glow" for the dining room. This journal will be a constant reference for as long as you own your own and will be an asset when the time comes to sell to a new owner as you'll be able to validate every project you've undertaken with the property. Makes a great gift from realtors to new homeowners as well!
