Patrick and I have officially completed our first investment property. It was a ton of work, but definately worth it.

the entire house walls, ceilings, and trim were painted this lovely shade of Smurf blue

I know this fan is beautiful, but Patrick and I decided it was a bit taste specific!
And the rooster wall paper, a perfect compliment

Blue paint gone. Now a calming shade of tan with clean white trim.

I didn't get a before of the bathroom, but believe me you would not have wanted to use it!
The faux green marble wainscoting is gone and the coordinating blue vinyl floors, gone.
Now I would proudly use this bathroom!

after: clean appliances, fresh clean paint everywhere, new faucet.
much better

No more blue

The three bedrooms are pretty much the same, they all had these horrible vertical venetian apartment blinds as closet doors. Yes, it was as ugly as you are imagining.

Wish you could have seen the before, the brick was yellow/orange, and the yard was overgrown.
We painted everything, added shutters, new light, mailbox, numbers. It's a complete transformation, and we had fun doing it (although, I did get a bit tired and nearly painted my hands off)
