Flipper home. What was is no longer. The job is finished.

Remember back when the fun began on this home? It has been a smooth ride for the most part. The only issues we had with the home was waiting on the plumbers and the electricians to get their jobs done so we could proceed along with the project.

I had done an estimated time loss and come up with the time calculation of Two weeks.

This was based on the "NO SHOW" days by the plumbing and electrical contractors.

So in all actuality the home could have been completed two weeks earlier than we did complete the home.

The good news is we did complete the home and now have moved on to another project of building some new interior office spaces.

Enough about me, how about a look into the home that took Three months to complete.

This Flipper home started with the first post. Check  http://actvra.in/Qpz  the pictures and compare them to the finished product.

Remember this shot?

Now take a look at the kitchen area.

Same shot only finished now.

Here is a look at the rest of the kitchen.

The new utility room.

We had carpeted the bedrooms and added all new appliances including the washer and dryer.

Here is a peek at the bath.

Bath Two.

Here is a look to the living room from the dining room.

The only thing left to do is add drapes and or window treatments.

Then the home is ready to move in. We passed inspection yesterday and got the Certificate of occupancy.

Have a great day everyone.

Hi Dorie,

The home is going to sell probably this week if not next week. There have been a couple of Realtors who want the home. Now the fun part of negotiating begins. The owners will do all of the negotiating for the homes sale.

Have a great day in Canyon Creek, Texas.

Hi James,

This is so true. It would had been faster for us if the sub contractors would have been there when they were supposed to be.

Have a nice day in Rogers my friend.

Hi Cindy,

Good to hear I think. LOL Many flippers get in and out the cheapest way possible. Not here. We did not cut any corners.

Thanks for the comment and have a very good day in Virginia.

Hi Adrian,

Thanks my friend. I really pay attention to detail. This is already being sold. Just not a final price on the home yet. Maybe this week.

Have a great day in the Seattle and Bothell areas.

Hi Anita,

There will be a sale on the home this week or early next week. Just in the negoiating at this time. But it will sell quickly. Homnes here in Carlsbad are at a premium.

Have a great day in Warner Robins.

Clint, Congrats on the flip.

Pretty normal to have down days between subs, they have other jobs to do as well.

Hardwoods in the bathroom again!  And there's not enough caulking around that toilet.     ;>)

Looks like there is no dishwasher.  Is it on the other cabinet bank?

Looks well done, clean and fresh. I'm not a fan of stucco finishes or popcorn on drywall. I prefer smooth easy to paint and maintain surfaces on drywall.

Hi Al,

Thank you, I don't think it will last at all. In fact we have Realtors interested in the home and not even on the market yet.

Have a good day in Ormond.

Hi Donald,

Not on the market officially. But it is going to sell even without a single sign being put up.

Have a great day in the Great Northwest my friend.

Hi Robert,

We had to do something with the textured walls. The cement plaster was really hard to work with.

Have a great day in Montreal.
