Dori the Flip House: week 4

I hope you enjoy these weekly updates as I learn to navigate through the business of flipping houses.  My latest flip house, Dori sports the 3 L’s in real estate, but will need more than a bit of creativity to make the house sellable. You can find more about this house and about my 4 previous flip houses here. This is bound to be the most boring flip update yet- you've been warned.  Only 3 things happened this week:

#1- I sold the old barnwood from the sheds on craigslist

#2- The plumbers installed a new tub and readjusted the plumbing in the bathroom and kitchen to accommodate my planned layouts

#3- we finally have a building permit!  It's nice that it came through almost a week earlier than planned, but unfortunately my contractor isn't available to hit the ground running until next week.  But you best believe that next week, BIG THINGS will be happening!!

Well, I guess one more thing happened: I ordered a LOT more things.  Light fixtures, bathroom vanity, faucets, tile, etc.  I plan to have absolutely every item needed ready and waiting when it's time to install.

Luckily, I think I have all my design plans worked out in my head- curb appeal, kitchen, bathroom and what each room is going to feel like....  Now I'm just going to be keeping my fingers crossed that construction and the schedule go according to plan.

Have a wonderful weekend!
