  This morning I drove to Independence, Mo. to talk with  a group of widows and a widower.  This group is a part of Skillbuilders which is a program designed to assist widows and widowers in adapting to a new lifestyle and teach them life skills which they suddenly need,  One class has to do with personal safety, another has to do with managing finances, another is geared toward maintaining an automobile,  a couple are geared toward grief support.  It is a wonderful program where people who are dealing with deep painful emotions can find safety and share their experiences, pain, and achievements.  I talk about the real estate market and getting your home ready to sell.  Generally, these people are not ready to sell their homes.  Their grief is too fresh.  I encourage them to take time a...

We’re in the finishing stages of our renovation at 2901 Norwoood in Independence, MO.  This home looks a lot different with a fresh coat of paint.  If all goes well we should be able to get this home on the market sometime in the next week. This is a shot of the front of the house.  Lots of folks at this renovation when I took this picture. Here is a shot of the bathroom I love the fresh look of the white on the tub, vanity, and toilet against the dark laminate. This is the kitchen.  Lots of great counter and cabinet space in this house. Another great feature in this house is all the living space.  Carpet should be going in early next week.

Thing are moving along swiftly on our renovation of 2901 Norwood.  Every time I see this house I’m surprised by how much larger it is on the inside than it appears on the outside.  Very deceiving. This is a shot of the kitchen.  As you can see the cabinets have already been installed.  Lots of cabinet space in this kitchen that’s a rarity for a house that will rent out for $900 per mo. Its hard to beat 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms for under $1000.  Here is a shot of one of the bathroom. Two of the bedrooms on this house could easily be second living areas.  Here is an example of what I mean.  This room has all the features of a normal bedroom windows, closets, etc but look at how large this room is.

The renovation on 2901 Norwood in Independence started last week.  All we’ve done so far is exterior paint and tear out but I expect that this home will come together very quickly.  This is only the second home Vizion has done in Independence, MO in fact our other home in Independence is about 2 miles away. As you can see most of the exterior paint has been completed.  It’s hard to believe from looking at this house how large it is on the inside.  4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a full basement that’s hard to beat for under a $1000 per mo. This is where the kitchen will be located.  As you can see everything has already been torn out. This is a shot of the rear of the house.   From this viewpoint you can see that this house is a bit larger than it appears from the front. This Is Where We S...

After four weeks of rehab Vizion’s first property in Independence, MO has been completed and listed on the market at the very reasonable price of $125,000.  This of course means we have another installment of our continuing series Nastiest to Nicest remodels.  Project Independence is the first house we’ve had the opportunity to use the new solid surface granite counters.  It’s also the first house we’ve done in Independence, MO.  We plan on using the same solid surface granite on all of our remodels under $150k Project Independence Remodel Video     vizionkc.com
