Just Finished Buy and Hold Rehab For just over $3000
Good Evening Everyone!
I'm please to announce that I am now putting the finishing touches on a property I bought for $17,500 a few months back. All in all I spent just over 3000 dollars and that is including all the inspections/appliances (lead, fridge, W/D).
It seems cheap, and it is the reason is because I did everything myself.
Being a DIYer isn't for everyone but I want to make it clear to people that 3 years ago I couldn't change a toilet let a lone renovate a whole house. Through perseverance and mass research with a huge amount of hope I have been able to achieve the level of "handyman" I am at now. I say this not to build me up but in hopes of showing someone who may not have the confidence to do a project themselves it CAN be done.
This isn't the first one I have done I did another about a year ago not to the extent of this one. Each place comes with it's own challenges. This house in particular had a massive termite problem that I failed to find on inspection (wouldn't of changed my opinion on buying the property anyways, just gave me a whole lot more work then I had hoped for).
Glad to finally be done with this one and I am excited to start on the new one that I closed on a few weeks ago. I will try to do a better job of documenting that one. Here are some pictures!
