@Paul Stout Sure does work nice intro.  Good luck getting going. Surely, you'll find opportunity across this platform!

Hit a couple minor snags throughout the past week. Had a rough plumbing inspection and for one of the bathrooms we need to add an access panel into the wall. 

Also, when we opened up the box to one of the bathroom vanities, the vanity top was cracked and damaged so that has to be exchanged.

Other than that, the carpet was put in this past Friday, really cleaning up the space. 

Over the next week, we are just tying up loose ends like putting some new lights in.

Staging will be here on Monday.

I should have some finished pictures by the end of the week!

Over the weekend I did worked on some small projects like repairing some rotten decking and putting up blinds throughout the house.

Interior has been painted.

Color is Cedar Key by Benjamin Moore

Here is a video of our weekend work!

Interior paint is underway over the next couple days. Trim is painted white. Walls are getting their first coat today. Going to start looking a lot different inside which is exciting.

Had our plumbing inspection yesterday which went well. Now, we can finish up the bathrooms!

@Austin Hughes I would more accurately understand what the ARV is on the subject property. You say the surrounding props are $120k average, but are they comparable? Those values could have much less merit if the subject prop is very unique. So, before structuring an offer, understand the props ARV.

Also, assisting her with the sell, move, and transition will strengthen your offer greatly. Plus, it's nice to help people out! But, as @Account Closed insinuated, are you prepared to deal with horses?

Good luck, man!
