We’ve been on a long hiatus. I sold my last house in February, 2020, and when the pandemic hit, I had an offer in on another house. My husband was worried about the unknown in front of us and wanted to be liquid, as we had no idea what was to come and we assumed…
Flippin’ Friday: Work Stoppage
I know I’ve been MIA, but I’ve had good reason. Unfortunately, work has come to a bit of a screeching halt over at the Plain Jane. Our contractor who is putting in the flooring had some personal things to take care of, and the floors still haven’t been started. Island I’m eager to get the…
Flippin’ Friday: Paint and Selections
Happy Friday my friends! Things are moving along at the Plain Jane, though we are at that point where it’s a little bit tough to SHOW you the progress. The Kitchen I am still working on the kitchen island. I had to step back from it a bit as I got a little overwhelmed with…
Skinny House Reveal
Writing this post is like a victory dance for me! We’ve crossed the finish line and are ready to list. And I’m ready to share! Enjoy! Front Porch A little foliage, a new light, and a new front door color and hardware go a long way. I added the address plaque to bring out the…
Flip House Friday: Bath Changes
We have turned a corner and can see this house coming together! The backsplash just went up, and the flooring is mostly complete. We are getting the last of the plumbing fixtures in, and there are still some light fixtures to go up. Bathroom But in the bathroom, things have gone askew 🙁 Here was…
Flip House Friday (and Naples and my bum)
Happy Friday! I missed last week as I was just coming home from a downright awesome trip with my husband to Naples, Florida to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. And I’m not going to lie; it’s a week later and I’m still a little bummed it’s over. Naples is beautiful, and I loved the…
Flip House Friday: House # Mine!
Well, if you’ve been paying attention, it’s been a little while since I shared a flip house tour. It wasn’t because I forgot or because I was ignoring you, it’s because I wasn’t able to get into the house. The previous owners were still living there, and the past month has been an education in…
Flip House Friday: House #2
While I was waiting to hear back on my offer from house number 1, this house came on the market. It had a higher potential sales price than house #1 but also needed more work, including new siding and fascia as well as some serious driveway repair. Inside, there wasn’t any flooring that could be…
Flip House Friday: House #1
One of the things I love most about flipping houses is the hunt! I’ve always loved looking at houses for sale even when I wasn’t looking for one, so now that I’m flipping, I’m loving being back in the market again. I know I’m not the only one, so I thought I would share my hunt…
The Luan Saga – A Glimpse into Flipping Houses & Being a Mom!
If you ask my kids, “Lowe’s” rhymes with “woes” for good reason. As soon as I mention the name, they whine. During a flip, it’s not uncommon for me to be there pretty much every day, and sometimes multiple times a day. I think the kids were excited to go back to school just so…
