Notes on Budget
This is placeholder data representing initial estimates. Actual costs will be tracked and updated throughout the project. Categories may shift as the project evolves and unexpected needs arise.
Budget Philosophy: I'm prioritizing the building envelope and mechanical systems to maximize long-term energy savings and comfort. While this increases upfront costs, the investment should pay dividends through reduced operating costs and improved durability.
