First live in flip almost completed!

In May of 2016 my wife and I decided to quit throwing away money on renting and attempt our first live-in flip.  We bought our house for $214k in Henderson NV and have since put around $10k and a lot of hard work into it. We are quickly approaching May 2018, which is when we will put it on the market.  We are hoping to get around $275k for it.  So, if all goes well we will have about $35k in profit.  Combine that with the $10k we will have payed off over the 2 years on the balance, and the $10k back that we put into it and we should have around $55k to use towards our next venture.  Nothing to crazy, but sure beats the $30k we would of just thrown away the last 2 years renting!  

Below are a few before and after pictures of the progress.  I will update the post once we list the house for sale.
