It was just brought to my attention that I have not yet posted anything on this blog regarding real estate. Which is of course shocking because it is definitely something I excel at and I enjoy doing. Truth be told, my cousin Kenny and I are about to begin on a little real estate investment / project. I have always had a dream of buying an older house, fixing it up and selling it for a huge profit. However, due to a few bumps in my credit (curse the Nordstrom's half yearly sale and the 2002 Olympic Edition Pontiac Aztec that I just
had to have) a home loan has been a bit of a challenge. So I would like to congratulate Kenny on becoming my partner. He will contribute the financial capital and I will contribute the knowledge capital. Anyway, the plan is to post our progress. So here are a few photos. Here are the before pictures:
As you can see we have a lot of work to do. But you can also see the potential. The best part is the sweet deal we got on this house. I don't want to reveal the price until we have it fixed up and sold. Does anyone know how to get a hold of the producers of "Flip this House?" I think HGTV would love to promo this. If you do please forward me their contact info.
So I will keep everyone updated on the progress. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it. We are going to make a ton of money! The only thing I'm nervous about is Kenny's poor taste in paint color. (We spent and hour and a half at Home Depot fighting over colors.) Kenny wants me to believe that because he once dated a girl that was going to be an interior designer that he taste is better then mine. Yeah Right!
Stay tuned for more house updates!

Hunter and Kenny, is your house hooked onto another bigger house? Who owns the bigger house? I think you should just leave it the same color, that is a lovely aqua-marine.
P.S. You might want to rethink contacting "Flip this house" -check out this article.
