Dean Ave Cottage Flip Before & After

in , , , , , , , by Tracey Jones, August 13, 2020
This post is a long time coming so I'll try to keep it short-ish ( ok no) , sweet and really pretty!! TLCo (my friend and flipping business partner Leslie- so "Tracey /Leslie Co"...yes we are clever like that ! ) bought 
the little investment house on Dean Ave in November 2019. Plans and permits rolled along through Dec and Jan. Demo and construction began full steam at the end of January 2020. We bought a basically untouched 1954, 1150 sq ft bungalow on a great lot in a really desirable location in central Victoria. Close to schools colleges shopping and hospital. Read on to see the pretty amazing renovation transformation .

TLC HOUSE BEFORE & AFTER

in , , , , , , , , by Tracey Jones, March 14, 2016
So many requests for the before and afters of our TLC House flip here in Victoria. 4 month process from purchase to SOLD! Lots of brain churning sleepless nights planning/thinking/budgeting but surprisingly not too much stress. Great business partner Leslie ( Thank you!) - great team of sub contractors - great property...just needed some love and some sweat and lots of patience!

TLC House Update

in , , , , , , by Tracey Jones, January 25, 2016
Here's a very long over due look at the progress on our TLC House renovation. 
The good news is we are pretty much on schedule ( even with the holidays thrown in there!) and according to the banker ( L not T )  pretty close to on budget. I know I'll get told very quickly when we are NO LONGER on budget 
so that keeps me a little scared and very thrifty! The sign of a good partner !

What does the house want...?

in , , , , , by Tracey Jones, November 11, 2015
Working hard on the TLC House! This is the time in a renovation when it seem like lots is happening but not much change to see...messier, dirtier, uglier.

I always say it has to get way worse before it can be better!

Hey HGTV .... "DEMO DAY" isn't a DAY!

Hammer Time! Demo begins....
We took possession of our TLC flip 2 weeks ago.
Progress is being made...slowly but surely.

Plans coming together, permits applied for, yard repairs started and trades lined up.
If anyone tells you this is easy....LIARS!

So....We Bought a House !

in , , , , by Tracey Jones, October 15, 2015
Yes we did...We bought a HOUSE!
"Flipping Victoria" ? Sounds good right? We thought so.

After months (& months!!!) looking for the right property this little gem in Gordon Head presented itself to us. Awesome big lot, near by parks, schools, transit, shopping. Untouched 1961 split level...checking all the right boxes for two newbie flippers.
Holy CRAZY you think?
