Reminded of the saying "everyone knows price, but very few know value". So much for your high-end interior finishes, thick hardwood teak floors, granite counters, imported porcelion tile, built-in teak cabinets, European kitchen and bathroom hardware. These features mean nothing to a person without the knowledge to discern. To some extent this is true throughout the world, but no where moreso that here. And if you spent 5 million to build, and then 1.5 million to fix their mistakes, what was the value of your time and agrivation along the way? In my book, this house cost you far more than 6.5 million when all is said and done.
