Here’s what you’ll get:+ insider’s view of everything:- what I look for when searching- how I found the properties- what it takes to seal & close the deal- numbers: all things $$$ related- plan: what’s my plan to do with them (with chances to practice/“role play” as if you’re the decision maker)- actual process of renovation: planning, construction cost, materials selection for flips, resources (contractors, subs, architects, supplier houses, etc...)- staging, marketing for sale- listing (diy or hire out, resources, etc...)- and everything else in between+ these are all free of course+ my promise that I won’t sell anything during the process :) so you’re perfectly safe with me!!!

Replacing Old Windows- Need Advice

Here's why:Aluminum windows last the longest.Tempered or laminated glass are both stronger than plain annealed glass (laminated is just a tick more energy efficient).MUCH cheaper than good quality custom sized impact windows both in initial cost and replacement cost (I doubt that you will find exact fit factory replacements)Covering them with a permanent, crystal clear, UV filtering shutter will prolong the life of the window, eliminate water leaks and window maintenance.Permanent shutters don't break so there's no replacement cost and offer continuous protection whether you're home or away.Increases home resale valueIf you simply want to flip the place, go to a cheap PVC impact window supplier and get a list of standard sizes and modify your openings to fit.
