Also just started a flip outside of Richmond that should be ready in April and will post next year when that one is finished.

@Jonathan Smith the before and after pics look great, but I would be surprised if you were able break even after rehab costs, 2 years of holding costs, closing costs, and realtor fees.
Great looking Job Jonathan!!
I would like to know the area where the house is located.
@Jesse Harris
It was In The Moseley area out towards Powhatan. Probably the last house you can get for under 200k in the area so that also helped out in selling it.
