From this to that.....

I always say, save your renovating until you need to, or are ready to sell, then your renovation will reflect the modern trends to get best dollars. The problem was, this place really needed to be updated/kitchen replaced etc, it was falling apart before our eyes, and the longer the tenants...

I did a previous reno on my partners house in mulgrave and we sold it for a very nice profit (he had owned it for 10yrs). With that one, I went 'upmarket' look, but sourced all my supplies from wholesalers and ebay etc. Came up looking great, cost me a packet, but we made it back and more when...

Had planned to do the kitchen back 18months ago, but the tenants wouldn't facilitate it (had to book a time with the kitchen company). And we had looked at replacing the sunroom roof, again tenants took it to vcat, even though they knew the plan had been to convert back to patio. In the end, I...

Yeh thats what we thought, and it was a lot cheaper to turn it into a patio (and more practical), than trying to fix the leaking sunroom roof. Now as a patio, I doesn't really matter if it leaks a bit (leaks are to be fixed this week). Once the plumbing is hooked up out there this week, will...

Got second coat on the patio and wall outside today, and then spent part of the day clearing all the non essentials out of there and then a big shop up at spotlight for curtain rods and curtains for all the window......whew....that was a bit of a shock to the c/c

One more week to go, so many little things to finish up.....

The sunroom that caused all the problems........now makes a lovely outdoor undercover area..... a few more touches of paint, a bit of scoria in the garden bed, and a good sweep, all will be done.

Bathroom before......and now. Still a vanity and toilet to go in after it gets grouted Monday, its slowly coming together.

Laundry before.....and now ....

Ok, trying out uploading pics, so this was the kitchen after I'd already attacked it for a day or so.......and where its at now....a few things still to do, but nearly done.

My partner is supposed to be setting them up on a site for me (thats more his thing). So hope to get that happening soon. The plasterer came on Wednesday, so we now have all new walls, and I even got 1st coat of colour on the walls of two rooms today, things are moving along nicely

Inside the robes got finished off today.... Also noted someone had tried to break in, but unsucessfully so. We have fixed that up and gone out and bought the rest of the window/sliding door locks to be fitted tomorrow. Also rang the handyman to come and get his compressor etc which he had...

Hi guys, I'm fairly new here, and what a great site. I have recently had tenants move out of one of our rentals and in the process of renovating. The problem was the enclosed sunroom at the back of the house, so its being converted back to an open patio area. The kitchen , bathroom...
