As a background I Flip houses and own a We Buy Ugly Houses franchise. I have owned and operated the franchise full time for 12yrs and flipped houses on the side before that. I don’t usually get into showing my projects too much because they are mostly just single family homes that we renovate and either keep for rental or resell. Usually they are typical renovations that we try to keep very simple so nothing too interesting.
This property we bought this time last year was very different. It is a single family row house in Boston. They are very hard to get and worth a lot so being in the discount home business we don’t get too much opportunity on places like this. We decided to keep it as a rental and do a full gut rehab on it. We did a project like this about 4 years ago and they are a ton work with but fun as it is out of the norm.
It took 1yr and $170k Renovation. 4 months of that was just to get the permit from the City of Boston. It will rent for $4500mo. 280deg views of Boston from the roof deck we added. It is 1256sqft total with 3 bed 1.5bath on 3 floors. The whole house is only 12ft wide x 30ft long All rooms are 12’x12’ with the rest used up by the stairway.
This was one of most fun projects we have done just because it is so different from what we usually buy.
