You, the homeowner, may also find yourself plagued with your own, shall we say, unexpected issues &#8211; such as the ones that we\u2019ve highlighted below!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#1: The Downward Spiral<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>This is a common problem, especially with new homeowners. You start renovating your kitchen, then realize your dining room looks terrible. Then your living room starts looking ragged, then your entryway, bathroom, bedrooms &#8211; you see where I\u2019m going with this? Fixing up one part of your home often leads to the downward spiral of spending a fortune getting the rest of your home up to par. Cue your crying bank account, and say goodbye to living in a quiet, peaceful home for the next few months!<\/p>\n<p><b>The Cure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Instead of indulging your panic attack and renovating your entire house, start making <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">plans<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to renovate your other rooms. Later, when you have the time and money, you can move into renovations quickly and easily. It\u2019s also a good distraction while you are still busy with your current renovation!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10357\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/renovation_woes_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/renovation_woes_1.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/renovation_woes_1-940x627.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/renovation_woes_1-440x294.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planete-deco.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/RO4-1.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Credits<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>#2: \u201cI Want It Now!\u201d Syndrome<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyone who has watched the film <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Willy Wonka &amp; the Chocolate Factory<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> knows the cautionary tale of Veruca Salt, the spoiled brat who spent the movie whining, \u201cBut I want it NOW!\u201d Everyone who goes through a home renovation has at least one impatient freakout like this. It\u2019s one thing to demand your contractor stay on schedule, but it\u2019s another thing to have a full-blown tantrum when your rug arrives a day late.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The Cure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Find something else to distract you while you\u2019re waiting. Take up snorkeling, day drinking, or insist on taking a mid-renovation vacation. Remind yourself that the rug will be in your house for decades, so who cares if it shows up a day late? <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#3: The FOMO is Real<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>We blame this entirely on social media. People now have endless photos of that \u201cperfect house\u201d to pore\u00a0through, usually late at night after a few glasses of wine. Yes, these homes are perfection. What you don\u2019t see is the pile of clothes just outside of frame, or the cat hair that\u2019s been meticulously Photoshopped out. Staring at pages of pretty little rooms can lead to decision paralysis, hating oneself, and late-night online shopping.<\/p>\n<p><b>The Cure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> We know this will be tough, but the only cure for FOMO is a digital detox. Stay off Pinterest, Instagram, and design blogs. That\u2019s all there is to it!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10358\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/renovation_woes_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/cdn.theeverygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Union-City-Apartment-Tour-TEG-EJP-62.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Credits<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#4: Ordering the Lobster<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it may be tempting to order the most expensive thing on the menu, when it comes to home renovations, the pricey option isn\u2019t always better! It can be tempting to talk yourself into buying a $10,000 chandelier for your linen closet because you saw it on <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping Up with the Kardashians<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. But do you really need it? The answer is no &#8211; unless you are <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">literally<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> a billionaire. (If you are, the answer is still no, but you\u2019re a billionaire and don\u2019t have to listen to anyone.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The Cure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Find an accountability partner to keep your spending under control. Hide your credit cards. And do the math on how much you need in order to retire comfortably. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>#5: Burn it Down<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>No matter how large or small your home renovation is, there will come a point when you\u2019ll be tempted to say \u201cScrew it. Burn the house down and start over.\u201d This is especially common if you live in your house during renovation works. You will have fever dreams of leaving the gas on, lighting a match, and sauntering away to a new and better home. This is creepy, but totally normal.<\/p>\n<p><b>The Cure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> DON\u2019T. BURN. YOUR. HOUSE. DOWN. Do what you can to take a break &#8211; go to a hotel for the weekend&#8230;week&#8230;whatever you can afford. Maybe lay off the day drinking. Or don\u2019t. Whatever helps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10359\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/renovation_woes_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/renovation_woes_3.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/renovation_woes_3-940x704.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planete-deco.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/KA8.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Credits<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regardless of which renovation woe you\u2019re currently facing, take a deep breath, relax, and know that it will all be okay in the end.
