Rental Property Rehab

Since real estate sales have taken a NOSE DIVE, we've been focusing more on long term real estate investments this year instead of flipping. We've invested in rental properties. We bought this great house a few months ago for a great deal (it was a foreclosure). It's almost 4,000 sq. ft. It has 6 bedrooms, 3 baths, a pool in the back yard, and it's in a cute neighborhood in Arlington. It just needed a lot of work. John was up for the challenge! Here are some before and after pics of the rehab...

The house.



We plan to paint and do more landscaping as time goes on.

We already have 3 of the 6 rooms rented out. We literally just finished it this past weekend and we already had 3 renters before it was even done. The rental market is really strong right now. But don't go trying to sell anything! It's dead in the water!

Welcome to our flippin' blog!

Many of you have expressed interest in seeing the before and after pictures of our houses that we've flipped over the past two years. Well, I finally decided to give you what you've asked for! On this blog, I will post and maintain pictures and details of the homes that we've purchased, completely renovated and flipped. We are currently seeking our next investment property to flip or rent. Stay tuned for details of our next project. Meanwhile, enjoy the pictures from flips 1, 2, and 3!
