New House

We haven’t posted in a while as we were busy with a new project.   Christopher needed a place to live and there is a dearth of affordable housing in this country.   Instead of being a slave to a landlord and never being able to save we thought it would be a good idea to find a second house in town.  We found a fixer upper on the other side of town that has a lot of potential.  It was a rental property for a few years and allowed to get run down.

We spent a few weeks just cleaning and hauling junk out.  Bug bombs, bleach, and carpet cleaners.   There is still a lot of work to be done but it is now clean and livable.  The MLS pictures are from BEFORE the renters moved in.  It will take a few years to get it 100% but it should be a fun project.
