For Sale so you can't see
The other day as soon as the sign went into the yard I closed the blog to just anyone who wanted to view it. Some people may see it as a benefit to see the before house pictures but I really do not want a prospective buyer having that choice. Would you buy a car that was totaled and then repaired? So that is why you couldn't see the blog and had to be an invited reader.

For Sale
The House is done and last night we listed it with a realtor. It was a long Summer Vacation of 25 months. We have learned that we are not house flippers. We learned that we do make things unique and spend too much money fixing things up. I think we may get everything out of the house that we put into it but we did the work for free. I am fine with that as in the end I just want to be done and move on to our next project.

Final Photos
One project we needed to do was make a return air for the living room. It was just a hole in the floor , so I built a box with drywall and below is the finished results.
The other thing I was looking for was photographs of finished rooms, outside shots and such. I saw that I had never photographed anything nice, just in bad shape and in the process of getting repaired. So over the next few days we will show the final photo's of the rooms

Finishing Touches
Everywhere I look in the house we have counters full of food from the garden. We need a bigger kitchen.
There was this concrete door sill that was between the backroom and kitchen. We kept a rug over it all this time and yesterday we finally did something about it. We used floor paint and painted wood grain into the wet base paint.
The space in between the door way isn't even that bad now.
The floor to the bathroom needed the divider too, so we purchased a $5.00 metal piece for that.
I have about 15 more things to do and I think we can say we are finished with the Mo House. They are are little things like above that we have just been living with..
