    I didn’t live elsewhere while I did the work. You don’t have to, you just have to slum it for a while.

      Sometimes you do have to, sometimes you don’t. If it’s a major enough renovation, it may actually be illegal to inhabit. I have lived in houses with no plumbing before. My wife and I are in our 40’s and that just isn’t going to work.
