This is the SMALLEST Fixer Upper I've ever purchased, but it's also one of the most challenging! It may be my first FLOP since 2018! This small house flip took me a lot of planning to figure out the best home renovation scope of work, but now that it's all done, I'm very proud of the house flip before and after!

Good call on the garage door into the house (you can hardly notice it being there) and leaving the kitchen door; and designing a washer/dryer spot. You did a great job and it looks fantastic. I was wondering if you think you could have cut down on the remodeling features to save 50k?. It is a shame you are taking a loss through the downturn. I don't know what you could have done to save more on remodeling without sacrificing the look though.

@TransformRealEstate Жыл бұрын

Thank you, I'm glad you liked the renovation. We already made this a low budget renovation by keeping the wall heater and shower tiles. There are other small things we could do, but we would only save a few hundred - a couple thousand dollars and it wouldn't make a huge difference to the bottom line.

About the tiles in the bathroom, they look in perfect condition and bring a cozy and vintage look to the space, definitely was a rational decision to keep them. Perfect job!

Hey Elisa! Really like your content! I grew up in the Bay Area then moved to St. Louis after graduating college to pursue real estate investing. The main reason is because the cost of houses is significantly more affordable especially getting started with flips. I’ve only flipped 2 houses in the last 2 years since I’m extremely conservative. My last flip I only made a small amount because I got very lucky with the first deal and made more than I’d thought so wasn’t as careful running numbers on the second deal. I could not agree more that those lessons are extremely valuable and I had no shame telling people that I didn’t make as much as I hoped! The lessons learned are priceless to thrive on future deals. Currently under contract with a 4 plex here so a big change than what I’m used to with the flips! Keep up the great work and just know your videos help out more than you can imagine!!

Is painting a fireplace a good idea for the potential toxic fume from the heat? Also, is there a building code requirement on the new entrance to garage due to vehicle exhaust issue? Impressive backyard work, the curb could be colored concrete instead of painted lumber though. Thanks for writing the book, I find it informative. Wish you a successful sale with this house.

I would’ve personally left the wall to cover the bathroom and laundry doors so you can fit a tv unit and wall mounted tv. This would be perfectly adjacent to the lounge. The living space is awkward for a tv with the current set up. Apart from that, it is a overall good job 👍🏼

On the numbers, 1.2 sale - 1.1 (1m + 100k) cost and renovate, still leaves 100k profit, but you indicate a 50k loss. Are there other fees you did not mention?

I thought about it too! Even considering closing costs, staging and financing costs for the holding time, it doesn’t explain the 150k difference… hope Elisa would answer!

1.2m, selling cost would be about 8% so $96k. Plus you have carrying costs.

Well, the dragon has to eat it's tail eventually. I thought you did a great design job on the reno. But when I heard the numbers my jaw dropped. Where I live you might have paid, max, $30,000 for the property, then spent another $30 renovating, for a sale price of $100,000, and a profit. But the numbers you quoted?? I don't even see how, in the bay area, you could have spent that much on the reno. (What's that bathroom console made of, gold?) And to have paid over $1M for the original derelict property. And to buy it for the ask, with that crappy broken driveway?? Something's out of whack here. (But like I say, great job on the design work!)

I don’t understand why you didn’t make space between the new vanity and the side of the tub. There is no way a shower curtain will work there. You took out the glass shower doors which means the owners will need to put them back.

@Multilovinglove Жыл бұрын

i just noticed that, i don't know if it's the way it's filmed but yes the cabinet is really close to the tub, they can still add a liner shower curtain to keep the water out

@TransformRealEstate Жыл бұрын

Because the toilet needs a clearance from the vanity, and the bathroom is too small to allow for a bigger space. But a new glass door can be installed. The old one is too dated.

I guess the loss could be a tax deduction against some of your more profitable flips.

@danielcheng769 Жыл бұрын

The only thing I don't like is you added a grass lawn instead of a desert garden. It's unlikely that a new owner will go through the trouble of redoing their front and back yard after the purchase, which means they'd be wasting water for years to come - water we don't have in the Southwest. The renovated house is your product, and as designers/builders, we are all obligated to be more sustainable even if some buyers don't have that in mind (yet).

@rubyoro0 Жыл бұрын

Everyone looks after themselves. She needs to look after herself. New owners can just let the lawn go if they so please.
