So this project was one that I tackled head on with some of my best friends. Drew O'Brien, Caleb Grow, and Wesley Vos. It was the very first house that any of us had fully flipped and it proved to be quite the challenge. We had each gone to South Carolina to do some freshening up of a property that my parents rent out, but none of us had done any major work to a house. Luckily, we had a ton of help along the way from friends and family members, because without all the help we got...I am not sure we would have gotten anywhere. We were not the best at doing before and after pictures at this point, but I do have some pictures of how the house was throughout the project. Overall, it was a fantastic starter house for flipping. I am pretty sure we could have had our own TV show with how many fun times we had in there and how much work we did. We bought the house in May of 2015 and started right away. We had finished all of the work in October. Currently I have this house rented out and it has been one of the best projects that I have ever been a part of. It is always nice to work with your friends, but when you can also provide a home for somebody that they fall in love with..makes it that much better. Here are the before pictures from the listing and then the after pictures for when we were finished!
