I am a stay at home parent with 2 young children. If I were to start doing anything around the house, I’d need a sitter and it is cheaper to hire a handyman than to muddle through it myself and get a sitter. My partner works long hours 7-9 Monday to Friday, and wants to just relax with the family on weekends. Am I not “allowed” to own a brownstone because it isn’t possible to do the work myself. I rewired all the receptacles in our old apartment, painted, but our lifestyle makes it hard these days.
