Here we go again…

Welp, we are back in the game; after a pandemic induced ass kicking on our last project on N Sumner we took some time off to reflect and see where the market was headed.  Turns out there is less supply than ever and still robust demand, so we are back at it!
Im really excited to breathe some life into this place.  Every home we have ever renovated has been completely trashed by the former owners.  So you show up, and its just disgusting and disturbing and I end up feeling angry.  Angry that this beautiful home got shat on, angry that these people just get to walk away and leave us their trash, and angry that they still get top dollar.
This home has been lovingly maintained and cared for.  With tons of cute and lovable little touches.  John is going to think Im crazy with all the things that I want to keep!  Stay tuned!

10 Oddball Portland-Area Homes Get Flipped: See Crazy Before & After Photos

A good flipper can see a house with good bones – even when it’s buried in debris. These design and function masterminds can lay down cash for a dwelling deemed unlivable, then remodel, restore, and remake it into a property a new buyer will pay a bundle for – or so they hope.

Designer Stewart Horner of Penny Black Interiors bought this 1896 house in the Southwest Hills and remodeled it into a chic contemporary masterpiece.

A two-story house in the Montavilla neighborhood was built in 2010 as an exact replica of the haunted mansion from the 1960s television show “The Munsters.” In 2017 new owners took this home from spooky to suburban, trading gargoyles for gardens.

A 1931 English farmhouse in the Woodlawn neighborhood was represented by Living Room brokers Tony Le and Jake Goodson. It sold for $365,000 in January 2019, and with “new systems throughout including all new electrical, new furnace/heat pump, new water heater and new roof, windows and gutters,” it sold for $615,000 in May 2019.
