FIXER UPPER: By Becky Boehrnsen, Realtor

Do you love old houses?
Would you love to restore or modernize an old house?


First, add up the cost of renovation based on your assessment of the condition of the house. Estimate high and include materials & labor, subtract from the homes market value & comparable prices for that area. Deduct another 5-10% for extras you may add on or things that may come up. See what is left and use that to determine your offer.

Make sure you plan a head and be careful not to fall into a money pit. Remember, carpet, wallpaper, paint and old appliances are cosmetic and can be easily fixed. Look for areas where you can save money and stretch the dollar. A lot of ideas you want in your home you want them to look like a design choice, not a budget cut.

A well lit room feels bigger and more inviting. Lighting can make a big difference but doesn't have to cost a lot.

Working with a Real Estate Agent that knows the area, houses and recent sales is a smart idea when buying a house.

A fixer upper can give you the home you have always wanted in your budget and your design. Call Juve Real Estate to help you get the house you have always dreamed of!!
