My Real Estate Investing Strategies - entry 10

FINISHED!! On Thursday we completed our punch list, changed the locks and turned over the keys to our new tenants. Following are photos of the finished projects.

On the left is the livingroom. It's a great room because it has a lot on natural light, a 1/2 cathedral ceiling and fireplace. We painted, put in new 2" blinds, new carpet, replace the missing entry light and updated the fireplace surround.

In the dining area we painted, put in new carpet and replace the broken curtain rod and replaced the missing curtains.




The kitchen needed cleaning, cleaning, cleaning so we cleaned the refrigerator, oven, cabinet doors in and out and the countertops. In addition we painted the walls and doors, replaced the missing light fixture, replaced the oven vent hood which was beyond cleaning and tiled the floor.









Both bedrooms have a wall of closets which is great. Here, in the master bedroom we painted, but in new carpet and new 2" blinds.


Following are 2 photos of the master bath.

The shower and toilet in a separate area so it was hard to photograph the shower but here it is and it looks great. In the master bath area we repainted, removed the crummy fiberglass tub and replaced it with a tiled shower, installed a new toilet and added new 2" blinds in the window.














And last are the second bedroom and bath. They were in pretty good conditions so we painted put new carpet in the bedroom, tile in the bathroom and painted the cabinetry.

It was a lot of work but we are proud of the improvements and hope the tenants will stay a while.
