Investment Info:

Single-family residence fix & flip investment in La Crescent.

Purchase price: $269,000

This was a live in flip. The house was in good shape when we purchased it however we did see how we could improve its value over a few years by adding our touches and then of course considering market the market was good it turned out great for us. We did all new flooring aside from a couple bedrooms. We built a brand new large outdoor living space with outdoor kitchen features. We opened up a wall and added our signature concrete countertops to the kitchen just to name a few things.
