It's aspirational renovations. Their target audience is those that aspire to the images they're shown.

I admit I'm partially susceptible to this siren's song but in realizing that this is a staged picture of many of a curated ideal then I feel more comfortable with reality.

They got professional lighting!!!

I have to rely on the sun and whatever nonsense the previous owners put into my place which at this point is a fair amount until I get around to changing it.

I don't know if you've done any home wiring, but in case you haven't and it seems like something you'd have to hire an electrician for, it really isn't. Swapping light fixtures, at least, is super easy, and so are things like installing dimmer switches. You can make a big difference in your home's lighting in a couple hours, and Google and Youtube can answer any questions you might have.

Just a vote of confidence from somebody who cares about not having shitty lighting at home :)
