Even with materials, even for an old house with issues, $12k seems like an awful lot...

I don't remember if that included paint, but it definitely included the other materials. We got several bids for the work, and they were all in the same neighborhood. The issue was all the hand-painting of woodwork (it's all painted), including new cabinetry in the dining room, bathroom and hall, lots and lots of doors and windows with big moldings around them, baseboards, picture rail in almost every room, and banisters/railings.
Unfortunately doing it myself was not an option, because I was pregnant.
