We have been keeping a secret from y’all for a few months now and I am SO excited to finally be able to tell you about it- we flipped our first home!!!!
We partnered up with our friends who own Modern Manor, and our realtor friend John Gluch, and together we completely transformed a home here in Phoenix {listing for it here}! We just listed it yesterday and already have a ton of interest, but I wanted to show it to y’all before it sells! Considering our first flip went really well, we might think about branching out to other countries rather quickly, especially considering we can find some of the best realtors in certain areas online, for example, we could start looking at varying Realtors in Vancouver if we wanted to flip a Canadian property in the near future.
I also will be showing the before shots of everything, the fun process doing it, and more details to come! When we first took on this house, it was clear that we would have to remodel certain parts of it. Of course, that’s normally expected when you try and flip a property. Whilst we had friends who could help us do this, other people may not have friends that can do that. If you’re considering remodeling your home or flipping a property, it might be worth getting in contact with a Houston home remodeling company, or another company in your area, that will be able to safely improve your home. After remodeling, your home should look exactly as you envisaged it. Most remodeled properties can actually sell quicker too, so it’s important to get the house in the best condition possible. Now that our home is nearly finished, we can begin to show you all. Firstly, here are our listing photos, all shot by Jordan Nielsen with ListerPros.
The original curved brick wall, wood burning fireplace, and ceiling beams are some of my favorite details of the home! The kitchen remodel steals my heart too though, from the gorgeous color scheme to the new kitchen appliances, this is truly an envious place for any chef. The best thing is that if the oven or dishwasher were to break or malfunction you can easily get a repair service nowadays like https:www.davidsapplianceco.com to fix any issues. This creates less anxiety around buying these impressive and more expensive appliances, which really do add that extra essence to the remodel.
The Master bedroom and bath are so stunning. The room is huge and once again the beams are sprawling across the ceiling! And the bathroom, oh the bathroom. I am such a sucker for marble counters, tiling, and massive walk in shower!
The house is three bedrooms and two baths, and 2,450 sq.ft.!
You guys, we really are just so excited about this! It felt truly weird to not DIY all the work, but we loved that we were able to select each and every detail in the home. The details after all are what its all about, what can turn a normal house in to a stunning home!
The backyard is also perfect for a family that wants a grassy area, but doesn’t want to spend every weekend maintaining it! Of course, we wanted to leave some sort of grassed area just to give the backyard some diversity and it gives the next family who moves in some inspiration of what to do with the outdoor area. We were thinking about installing a pool to boost the home value and we were wondering what is the best above ground pool but it was a decision we couldn’t quite make. We know if we lived here, we would certainly want a pool but I couldn’t be certain for the next family so we decided against it. There’s definitely enough space though if they do want to install their own pool.
Are you guys as in love with it as we are? We are really hoping that this is just the first of many homes for us to flip. We really loved the whole process and hope to find another home to love and transform soon. For any locals interested, here is the listing.
Really love it, you are blessed to have this!
Thanks Monnaie!! We do feel blessed to have been able to do this project
Love it!!!
Thanks Dayna!
Congrats! What a beautiful home. Best of luck selling.
Thanks Leah! We hope it sells super soon:)
Wait wait, is this the home you just bought? I thought you sold the first one? Was there a third one?? *So confused*
Love your blog 🙂 And those pics are gorgeous!
Sorry for any confusion. Our first home we bought and sold was a year ago, then we have been in our second home for a year now, with not intention of selling soon. This home I posted about was strictly a ‘flip’ home, we never lived in it:) Thanks for the feedback!
WOW! Great flip! I’ve been reading your blog for over a year now and love your style! Great job and am looking forward to “meeting” your new baby!
Thanks so much Lauren! Love to ‘meet’ readers:) We are also looking forward to meeting him, but not too soon;)
Very nice, but the link isn’t working 🙁 or did it sell already?
Just go to the link that it provides in the message saying it doesn’t work. I did a search with the house #. It pulls it up.
I just fixed the link as well! Thanks Ashley- just move on over here:)
Just fixed it! Sorry about that!
This is so pretty! Great job!!! I think the kitchen is my favorite. And cheeeeeap taxes! (Making me want to finally say adiós to Iowa, trust me)
Wow! It is fabulous! You will not have any trouble selling that! Great upgrades!
thanks amber! things are looking great so far:)
Fantastic job! Are y’all going to show before shots?
yep! before shots and more details to come later
OMG! I LOVE this house! Every last detail! I’m drooling over here, wanting to relocate to AZ just to live in this stunning home! I love your blog, I love your style and I love Modern Manor 🙂 Great job you guys!
just move on out here:):) thanks!
So incredible in every single way!! Color scheme, flooring, lighting, details, tile, sink, beams, curved wall… I can go ON and ON! So happy for you guys, you are so in your element and obviously have partnered well :))) Whoever wants this better act fast cuz it won’t be lasting. So freaking rad!!!! Congratulations on your first flip, clearly not the last!!!
you are always the best!! thanks for being excited with us:) hopefully many more to come!!
HOLY CRAP my friend! You are amazing! This house is perfection! I would buy it in a heartbeat!
Thanks love! We are so happy with how everything turned out!
That looks so nice! So here is a dumb question- when you buy all that stuff to show the house with, what do you do with it all when you are done?
Will you be revealing the costs and such? I love these kinds of projects, especially when they are local!
Glad you love it!! Our friends who own Modern Manor did the flip with us, so they are able to just use the stores furniture which is incredible. We do have friends who just stage homes and they say it’s an initial investment for sure, but then a few jobs pays it off. We will for sure be going in to more detail coming up here soon:)
This is fabulous, jaw dropping good! looking forward to all the detailed posts.
Thanks Vidya! We are excited to share all about it soon
I love it! Those are the colors I’m wanting to repaint my house in. Hope it looks that good when I get done!
Thanks Beth! I hope so toO!
That house is absolutely beautiful. Just enough “quirky” details to make it fun!
Thanks Brenda! We agree:)
this is absolutely wonderful. it really shows how much you put yourself into this project. my favored is the dinning table. I want to build one for myself and the kitchen counter, seamless, love it. thank you for sharing.
Glad you love it! Thanks so much!
Absolutely gorgeous! I wish you the best of luck with profiting with this flip and all in the future. I am anxious to see the before photos as well.
Thanks Patricia. We will be posting more photos in the next few weeks!
How far apart are the kitchen backsplash tiles? In other words, what are the size of the grout lines? Thanks!
We simply butted the tiles up against each other, no spacers needed. Hope that helps!
where did you find your kitchen cabinets and sink?? i love everything about this house!!
do you have before pics of this house?
thanks!
dana
Hi Dana,
To see all the before and afters of each room just search the Category of Home Flips on the blog. It has each post up:) The cabinets were custom, the sink was from Home Depot
Beautiful! Love the look of the backsplash without seeing the grout. Is the countertop quartz?
Its Okite {a version of quartz!}
What color of paint did you use on the kitchen cabinets?
Thanks
im so sorry tracy- normally i post it in detail, but i didnt- and now i dont remember!
