Never be intimidated by a challenge, you might just be the right person for the job.

Greetings Steemit family, I wanted to share with you or introduce to you my other life of real estate investing, specifically flipping.
The DC market is a very competitive market both in price and in high end finishing. When I decided to venture into this full remodel, I was afraid of failing.
When it was time to start, I had mixed feelings, I was not sure if I was up to the challenge.
When the demolition work began I was terrified, when the walls were opened we found a lot of surprises which meant that we would spend more than we had budgeted for.

After demolition I realized that I didn't have a choice anymore, the place was a disaster, walls were opened, the flooring was damaged and had to be taken out, the plumbing pipes and electrical wires were exposed. I was in the middle of the construction and had to make quick decisions to save on time because in flipping time is money, the longer you hold onto a property the more money you loose.

I had to get the best crew for the job to get this house done efficiently with beautiful finishes.
It took four months to finish with a full crew and I have to say that the finished product is worth every minute, every coin and every drop of sweat, it is a beauty.

After finishing we organized the neighborhood walk through in which we got outstanding reviews. This house was the first full remodel on the street and it helped the neighborhood appreciate in value.
Unfortunately I do not have the before pictures but I will share with you the pictures of the finished product. I took this pictures before the staging. After staging it looks like a piece of art but since this blog is about construction and finishing, I won't share pics of the staged product.
Enjoy :)
