Do you call if a flip if it's already yours?

Today we meet contractors to begin the renovation on a home we own in Wylie. It is located in a fabulous neighborhood, has a wonderful floor plan, BUT (and you knew it was coming)....has the original countertops and WALLPAPER from the early 80's.
So today, we are selecting new countertops, we will do some of the work ourselves and outsource the rest.
It's so difficult in selecting something "generic". To pick out everything - the first consideration is the average buyer. I'm thinking that could be anyone from 30 - 70, which most likely bear much different taste.
So wish me well. I'm putting on generic clothes, wearing generic shoes and trying to "assume" the role.
Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining! It's exciting to feel like a "flipper" - always thought we would be good at it. But are you truly a flipper if it's already yours?

This might be fun

Well my sistas...it's never too late to learn - and I say get on board. This blogging craze is not going away, and it's a terrific way to strengthen relationships, make new friends and we just might learn a little something along the way.
It will take time, just like anything we do, to get this blog up and going. It needs good content - and of course if you already know me - I am ready to "decorate"!
I intend to use this blog to not only post my "moments", I also want to use this space to be supportive of you - so feel free to "spill"....I'll promise to use my limited "wisdom" as a sounding board.
So, logging out now to get to the decorating....until tomorrow!
