House #29: Final Analysis

The Ticket House has been sold…and I’ve more than recoup the cost of the speeding ticket I received while pulling into the subdivision to view the house for the first time… 🙂 This was an easy project and a great experiment for us. First, it was outside of our typical purchase area (about 30 minutes […]

House #29: Budget Recap

May 18, 2012

The Ticket House is under contract to sell for the second time, and we’re hopeful that this one should close relatively close to on-schedule (end of May). The first appraisal for this one came in at the contract price, so that’s great news! The mortgage broker is hopeful that we won’t need a second appraisal, […]

House #29: Second Contract

April 26, 2012

As I suspected might happen, The Ticket House buyers ended up not being able to get their financing and the contract fell through at the end of last week… We immediately put the property back on the market, dropped the price by $5000 (to the price where it was previously under contract) and reached out […]

Update for 4/19/2012

April 19, 2012

Lots of Inspections

March 29, 2012

Our buyers have already had inspections on three of our houses this week: 1. The Full House is scheduled to close on Friday and underwriting came back a couple days ago and flagged the fact that the buyer never did an inspection. Unfortunately, FHA requires inspections, so this was something that needed to be taken […]

House #29: Two Offers / Contract

March 20, 2012

The Ticket House has been on the market for several weeks, and while we’d gotten quite a few showings, nobody was interested enough to make an offer. But, that changed over the weekend, as we got two offers yesterday, and the property is now under contract… One of the offers was near full price, and […]

House #29: Preliminary Budget

January 31, 2012

We just purchased The Ticket House yesterday, and rehab is starting tomorrow… Here are my estimates for this project: We’ve already gotten a few of the bids on the project, so I expect that it shouldn’t be too difficult to hit these estimates.
