For me in real life I live in a minimalistic house, and I carry this minimalistic approach to mynh house too lol. a nice wall and floor, a rug, a table, a plant, a lamp and a drawer. and I finished a room. lol that's it. I focus only on my island to be nice looking.
Has anyone else been neglecting their house?

On the contrary, for the first time ever I've actually really enjoyed house decorating, in the other games I'd put in random stuff in each room, now each room incorporates a theme, so a bedroom and kitchen and bathroom and lounge, etcetera, but I find it really enjoyable house decorating now and I really like the grab tool that makes things so much easier
The basement and attic are awkward shapes. No idea how to decorate them. The main room is filled to the max with DIY Recipes, the basement is starting to fill with more DIY recipes. I've made a kitchen and 2 bedrooms. That's all so far.

I've sort of been the opposite. I still have to get a basement, but my existing rooms are pretty well along. I'm not looking to do tons of outside development, since I want a more natural and rustic island (shut it, Isabelle!), so I've been able to focus on my house. I still have plenty of placeholder items while I look for my "perfect" ones, but it's keeping the HHA happy.
Yup, not enough furniture to entice me to do anything with my house. All my attention is going towards my island and even then, there’s not enough furniture to use outside either. This game is such a disappointment, I’m glad I got a Nintendo Lite, and not the special edition AC switch
Yes, there's not enough furniture that I love yet that I'm not also using outside*, and I get attached to things easily and then have trouble changing them around because of my sentimentality, so I'd rather wait for the perfect idea. I have my main room and two other rooms mostly done (one of those rooms I want to eventually expand into the attic instead). The other three rooms (including attic/basement) I use for hoarding. I made a second character for a lot of reasons, especially including decorating their house, but I have NONE of their rooms decorated. I have a few bits of furniture arranged in their room and that's that (but the exterior is customised). HHA is always complaining it's empty |D But I can't decide on what to do with all the rooms.
*Like, I adore the mush and celestial furniture, but all that's outside, for example. But I've always had a mush room in my house, so I gotta come up with a new room! And all the stuff I loved from New Leaf is out, so I really have to dig deep, lmao.
I do spend a lot of time in Photopia/Harv's Island designing rooms, though.
There's a LOT you can do with the items already in the game and custom patterns/creativity. The other thing I spend a lot of time doing is downloading cute flat patterns from Twitter...
edit: It took me a while to get 5* because I didn't really like decorating outside initially (I found it strange to have so many items outside and messing with the natural aesthetic of the game). So I spent a lot of my efforts on finding things that I liked and that went together and then putting them outside so I could get enough furniture for a perfect town, which was an important goal to me. So that held me up as well.

I haven’t even upgraded my house. I’m more focused on the island than the house itself. Once I have the island looking ok, I’ll move on to working on the house
Currently I've only decorated my main room. I'd like to start decorating the rest of the house but I'm still lacking in the DIY department, as well as many other pieces of furniture I'm interested in. So I'm neglecting my house, but not on purpose lol.

only reason why I'm not focused on my house is because I'm not getting the furniture that I want 
i know what 3 of my rooms are going to be but Nook's Cranny just doesn't want to sell it to me lol so I'm just working on my island

Kinda, yeah.
I've had this idea for my back room for a while that I just haven't been doing anything with. There's other rooms in my house that I'm not happy with and yet I've done nothing to fix them! Not sure where the lack of motivation is coming from.

I have been very focussed on my island and actually completely forgot about my house until I was showing someone around
my island and they wanted to see the inside of my house. I do have furniture in the rooms now and it looks nice,
but some rooms are still very basic because I haven't bothered updating them with new furniture
I'm planning on opening my island for visitors soon (when I have more free time)
so I'll have to make my house look nice too then haha!

Yeah, I focused more on decorating my island than work on my house because I don’t have all the furniture I’m looking for (Still missing a lot of things for the antique set). So far it’s basically a place where I dump my DIYs.
