So, here we are on our fifth week of the flip. The house is coming along great but still has a long way to go. We have been working on landscaping for the past three days. This was only supposed to take one, maybe two days. Now, by landscaping I'm referring to the mulch, planting new plants, cleaning/painting the shutters, and painting both the front and back decks. We have opted not to have the roof replaced since it's in good condition, just dirty. We have hired a cleaning crew to come out and clean it up. They guarantee that they can get it looking new again. That's what we want.
We picked out the new carpet last night. We're going to go with a Berber due to the popularity and the ease of stain resistance as well as cleaning. Our market is targeted towards families with children who tend to spill things on the carpet. I paid for the new carpet this morning and it's going to be installed next Wednesday.
An electrician is coming out later this week to install our pendant lighting over the breakfast bar and the vanity lighting in the bathrooms. I got a great deal on the vanity lighting. Shopping online pays off!!
I am tired and stressed. I have been at this house every night for hours upon hours. Keep in mind that I work on the house after working a full day at my job. Our goal was August 1 but if we can have the house complete by the first weekend in August, I’ll be very happy with that.
