    Were those kitchen cabinets included or an upgrade?

    We didn’t upgrade anything. Everything is too expensive.

      It can be expensive! we factored the upgrades into the price of the house before we purchased so it wasn’t a shock for us

      @@nicolet.rainer1605 we had to pay 35% of the upgrades upfront at the design appointment and the rest was bundled into our mortgage

    Just keep in mind you pay interest on anything done with the builder unless you are paying cash for the the entire thing.

    • @ShawnaLorenzen
      @ShawnaLorenzen  3 роки тому +2

      Correct! We paid a deposit on our finish selection, 30% or so and then the rest is rolled into the mortgage. Thankfully mortgage rates are really favourable right now (1%-2%)!
