Pull permits or not?

I want to renovate my house in San Jose. Update the electrical work by adding some recessed lighting, change my galvanized plumbing to copper, and switch out my old HVAC system for a newer one. Should I pull permits for this? Any idea how long to get permit and city inspection to approve all this?

Does this gray also give millennial gray that’s out of style? Or a warm gray that’s in style now?

I haven’t finalized the kitchen yet but would you choose this gray cabinets with brushed nickel hardware? Or a brass champagne? Thinking of doing MSI ivortaj as the counters and backsplash.

Is it worth the extra cost of moving the HVAC unit into the attic to make room for a larger walk in pantry like this?

If you were remodeling a home, would you pay an extra $30k to move the HVAC unit into the attic to have a pantry of this size? I’m adding a picture of our current pantry and a picture of the potential pantry once the HVAC unit is moved up to the attic to make room to make it bigger. Do you see a walk in pantry like this as a great resale value?

Why has this house been sitting for so long

I thought this house would have sold by now. Looks really beautiful on the inside but looks like they took it off the market after sitting and relisted it. what are your thoughts

I bought a house that has two different types of hardwood in it….Red Oak and White Oak. I want to sand and refinish to a Bona Nordic White. Will it come out different colors? Or should I replace the red oak with white oak?

My main thing is I want the house to look like the same uniformed color. I don’t want it to be obvious that the house is two different colors. Soo with that being said, do I keep the red and white oak and I shouldn’t have a problem? Or do I replace the red to match the white? I want to finish with Bona Nordic Seal and Bona traffic matte

Which kitchen layout do you prefer? I don’t like walking into the kitchen so that’s my biggest drawback here. The kit

So first kitchen is tearing down the wall at the front door entrance and opening up the kitchen to formal living room. But that means I’d be walking into the kitchen when you open the front door. Upside is having a kitchen island. The second option is keeping the wall up so you enter the house with just the formal living room in view along with the hall to the rooms and then once you turn you enter the kitchen and it will be a U shape kitchen. The Ushape kitchen is also quite large (not as small as the first rendering with open layout). It will be 137 inches from wall to wall in the kitchen. So more privacy but no kitchen island.

I bought a house with hardwood floors. They’re very thin plank type like 2 inches. Was going to remove to add lVP bc of young children but everyone is saying Id be crazy to remove the hardwoood. Thoughts?

For those who have hardwood floors in kitchen and in entry and pretty much everywhere else…do you regret it? And wish you did LVP? And for those with LVP do you wish you did hardwood?

Okay let’s try again with updated link. Was considering this house but was sitting on the market for 2 months. It’s currently under contract but in case buyer falls through I’d put an offer on it but wanted to know why others have passed on it.

For those who looked at buying in 95118, what made you pass on a house like this? https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1363-Santa-Fe-Dr-San-Jose-CA-95118/19758587_zpid/?utm_campaign=iosappmessage&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=txtshare

I’m in the market for buying a house in Cambrian and had my eye on this house. Was planning on putting an offer in and just saw it’s pending. But it’s been on the market for 2 months so I was wondering why other buyers passed on it? Congrats to the potential buyer, but if sale falls through I’m curious to hear thoughts before I move forward with it in case currnet buyer falls through and goes back on the MLS.
