My husband and I purchased this partially finished home off the market from someone who's circumstances changed and just needed out. We purchased the remaining supplies and did 90% of the labor ourselves. We had 4 offers within 48 hours of listing. It is currently under contract and we are awaiting a closing date. We are looking for our next property to purchase!

Lots and lots of Bigger Pockets and other podcasts. My husband is very mechanically inclined and I love houses!
