Looking for alternatives to Home Depot and Lowe’s and other big box stores for a minor rehab I’m doing. Specifically bathroom vanity sets (cabinet, under mount sink, and vanity top). There has to be other places out there that offer quality at prices less than the big box stores. Any suggestions?

Hey @Andrew Wicklow I have a few rentals in Tampa and I always went to Ikea. Not sure if they are cheaper or not, but Ikea is where I would get almost all of my fixtures.
I often use online retailers for my rehabs - they come in cheaper even with delivery charges - especially if you are buying items in bulk...here are some suggestions.
There are some really discounted suppliers if you dig online, also I use Craigslist and eBay - builders sell their surplus stock on Craigslist and eBay and flippers and home owners sell excess units and removed units in good and bad condition via these channels..
