@Ryan Beam thanks for the comment.

We just did valentines dinner thereNow for traditional Belizean meal   Rice and Beans   Versus their other favorite meal Beams and Rice.      

Purchase price: $219,000 Cash invested: $120,000 Sale price: $525,000 Full renovation including all new plumbing (removed cast iron pipes), removed load bearing walls and installed beams, new electrical panel, leveled and resurfaced concrete, all new flooring, cabinetry, doors, and painted interior and exterior.

The only structural scope was we put 7 new lally columns in the basement and sistered one beam that was cracked

Love the beams in the living room.

But I’m probably in the minority on here with that advice (most people on here are laser-focused in cash flow, and also probably don’t know the Broomfield market with its extremely high probability of appreciation/rent increases due to the population growth we’re experiencing). 

Pier and beam with crawl space. 1360 sqrft.

The eves had to be held up with a beam during restoration so that the weight of the roof did not cause the wall to collaspe.

A beam in the crawl space was structurally compromised.

Property is on Escanaba Ave, 9bed, 4ba, bought it for $60k, spent over $100k with almost full reno inside, new plumbing, new floors, electrical, HVAC, roof, etc, then last year I got a list of code violations that had new issues that I had never seen before, including basement beam and siding repair, fix cracks on the perimeter, fix balcony, etc .
