Yesterday we looked at a potential flip house for Rhonda and her contractor partner, Jeff. The house was absolutely disgusting: most of the ceiling had fallen, there was asbestos in the floor, and mold on the boards in the ceiling. She sees potential in it, so she might buy it. We also went to a client’s house to look at some cracks in the walls upstairs. We called a structural engineer to look at it and it turns out that the front of the house had sunk into the ground due to badly placed drains, causing the cracks. He thought it would cost about $45,000 to repair.
Today, we checked up on Rhonda’s current flip house which is close to being done. Now they’re just shining the floors, power washing the deck, and cleaning the windows for the inspector who was coming later that day. We then went back to her office and she worked on her designs while I went on AutoCAD and made a layout for the deck that she had me measure. I’m starting to get the hang of AutoCAD. I also read part of the book about architecture that she gave me.
So Rhonda flips houses and she’s an architect?
