We’ve been whittling away at the final list over the last week. The main projects left to do are to finish off the kitchen and the bathroom. In the bathroom I finished caulking and painting all the paneling and Tony installed the vanity and the sink. In the kitchen Tony installed just about all of the doors, the microwave, counter top and the sink. Today I tiled the backsplash, and was pretty pleased that I was able to finish tiling in a day.
After our failed attempt at an open house last weekend, I decided to drop our price a small amount, advertise again, and book individual showings. Within a few days I had a lot of interest, multiple showings, and I can officially say that this house is now rented! We have two weeks to finish up the last of the renovations before our tenant moves in.
