Well, its official... we need more stuff to do! Six kids and their entourage isn't enough so we had a wingding of an idea & are purchasing a house to flip. Our first (of hopefully many) projects takes us to Appleton, WI. Our "house" has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths & is 1236 Sq feet. Its a foreclosure and as you can see needs some work. The funny thing is, I haven't seen it yet! My brother has been doing the leg work as he is the one who is going to be doing the bulk of the work. Step #1 will be to take off the CHRISTMAS LIGHTS... I have an older picture from 2003 & the house looks exactly like this ~ Christmas Lights & all. The Pine tree is going to get trimmed up too since no one can walk down the path. The driveway is gravel & ends at a concrete slab. We will be constructing a 2 car garage & laying down a concrete driveway. New siding, new roof, and a host of updates inside that I'll have to wait to explain. We close on the house in May at which point I'll get keys & finally get to see the inside. I'll take photos, some measurements & start on a timeline & budget. We'll be using this blog to update the work as we go. This is a big step for us, especially in this market, but this is a great opportunity & I'm excited about the prospects & potential. So, join us on our NEXT ADVENTURE!
