My dad used to tell me a hierarchy of satisfaction in the context of home-ownership: buying > replacing > repairing > painting > cleaning. I think disposal is probably just after buying.

For me that would be:

repairing >> replacing > buying ...

I'm not sure where maintenance fits, I guess that's what "painting" is.
