We've got the keys to our very own..... project!

We signed the papers today for this beauty!
No, we aren't moving. Its a fixer upper.  We have plans to flip this house in 90 days and sell it.
Its a 4 bedroom, 1 bath house. Once car garage. Fenced in back yard. The owners before were smokers so there is a thick layer of nicotine on the walls, windows and ceilings. The walls are lathe and plaster.  The entire house is carpeted. The only part of the house that does not have carpet is the entry way and the laundry room. Underneath the nasty carpet is hardwood floors. We hope to refinish them and leave them.  The basement has tile ceilings which will have to go and we will put up sheet rock.  One of the bedrooms is dark wood paneling. The kitchen and another bedroom have paneling going up about 1/3 of the way. There are dusty cobwebs in every nook and cranny. It's going to be a huge project with who knows what spare time we have, but we are excited to see what we can do with this place. Everything that has to be done is all cosmetic.

Wish us luck!
