Morton St Finished – Flipped in a Flash Part 2

Here is the follow up to the last post I did about our Morton St house flip in Springfield.

We were about half way done with the rehab…. pretty much at the rough stage, when we found our buyer for this home.

The buyer came through a referral from a mortgage broker we do some business with. This buyer was one week away from purchasing another house when that deal fell apart….. and she needed to find a new home fast!! Dominic showed her our completed Fayette St rehab , she loved the finish work but she needed a little bit larger home because she ran an in-home daycare. He brought her over to Morton St and even though the renovation was only half way done, she could see the finished product based on the other properties we showed her and she wanted it.

Now for the fun part, she had to be in the house within 2 and a half weeks, and we were only half way done with the work….. so it was all hands on deck as our contractors worked overtime to get this one wrapped up in record time!!

Within a week our crew had most of the work done (after working night and day!) and we were scheduling home inspections and appraisals as we worked to close with our new buyer. Everything went relatively smooth and we even let our new buyer start moving in prior to closing.

Here are some pictures of the finished house flip:

Similiar to our Ellendale and Fayette St house flips, we ran the Bamboo hardwood flooring throughout the whole space including into the kitchen. This gives the floorplan a nice flow by running one continuous flooring throughout.

There was no need to stage this one or put it on the market as it was sold well before we were even finished.

In typical Hampden Homebuyers fashion; it came out looking awesome!!!

Morton St Rehab – Flipped in a Flash

Check out one of our latest rehab properties in Springfield.

Springfield MA House Flip

 

We bought this house after it had sat vacant for over a year. Due to being empty for so long the house became a target for thieves and vandals. All the plumbing was removed, the kitchen cabinets were stolen, the gas lines were stolen and even the nice 200 amp electric panel went missing just prior to us closing on the property.

Now these weren’t the lazy thieves that just cut a few copper lines out of the basement and head on there way. No, these guys were good….. they kicked in all the bathroom walls on the first and second floor to get at every little bit of copper that they could. They even got back behind the bathtub and shower and pulled the mixing valves out!!!

 

Here’s a video we shot prior to starting work on the house.

 

 

This flip is a mess!!

What I did like about this property was the floorplan. The kitchen, dining area and living room are all open to each other. The living room has the cathedral ceilings with those nice beams. All four of the bedrooms are large and there is a full bath on each floor. A really nice layout for a Cape.

Here are some of the before pictures:

This is a 4 bedroom 2 full bath Cape with around 1,500 square feet and a finished basement. It was built in 1989, so for New England, it’s a fairly new home.

Be on the lookout for my next post, where I’ll show you the finished pictures of this property, and tell you how we sold the house when the renovation was only half way completed.
