House #31: Solving The Puzzle

February 16, 2012

I mentioned the other day that we picked up a house we’re calling The Puzzle House. The reason for this name is that the first few times we visited the house, we were very confused about exactly why it was in the shape it was in. I know that sounds cryptic, but we’ll get to […]

House #32: The Unexpected House

February 14, 2012

I’ve been horribly lazy in posting pictures and updates recently — I still owe BEFORE pictures on The Ticket House, The Easy House and The Puzzle House, and now we have another under contract that I don’t yet have any pictures of. And I haven’t even mentioned the rehab underway on The Ticket House or […]

House #31: The Puzzle House

February 10, 2012

While we’re still waiting to close on the purchase of The Easy House, we put #31 under contract this past week. This one should be a “fun” project, as it presents some new challenges, is in a new area and will surely provide some great lessons… The reason I call it The Puzzle House is […]

House #30: The Easy House

February 5, 2012

We picked up our 30th house last week (in the same neighborhood as The Drought House)! This one is a Fannie Mae property that has a 90 day deed restriction — which means we are legally forbidden from reselling it within the first 90 days of ownership for more than 20% above what we purchased […]

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. The only major surprise I’d be concerned about is the HVAC system…it […]

House #29: The Ticket House

January 26, 2012

It’s been a long while since we put a new house under contract, but with about 20 offers in over the past two weeks, it was inevitable that we’d get at least a couple… This one is going to be called The Ticket House, given that I got a speeding ticket while entering the subdivision […]

House #28: A Few Pictures

January 18, 2012

We didn’t get any BEFORE pictures of The Full House, and we ultimately were able to reuse many of the STAGING pictures from The Waffle House, as the floor plan was exactly the same and much of the staging design was replicated. But, we do have a few pictures that are unique to this house […]

House #28: Budget Recap

January 12, 2012

I’ve been working on some other projects (to be announced!), so I haven’t been posting as much as I’d like. But, I wanted to spend the next couple posts wrapping up The Full House rehab, which finished last week; this post will detail our final budget numbers and the next post will provide the final […]

House #27: Final Analysis

December 23, 2011

The family and I have been on vacation for much of December, which is why I haven’t posted much this month. But, we closed on the sale of The Waffle House yesterday (see all the financial results below), so I wanted to post a quick final analysis of the deal. This closing snuck up on […]

House #26: Final Analysis

December 14, 2011

We closed on the sale of The Fourfecta House yesterday… (see all the financial results below) I should say that we FINALLY closed on this sale. We were scheduled to close about a month ago, when the lender went of of business the day before closing. It was supposed to take up to 2 weeks […]
