5 Things to Consider Before Buying a Fixer Upper

Thinking of buying a fixer upper? 🔨 The potential is exciting—but so are the pitfalls. Before you fall in love with a “project,” consider:

  1. Your budget—then double it. Hidden issues and supply costs can add up fast. 💸
  2. The scope of repairs. Are we talking cosmetic updates or structural overhauls?
  3. Living arrangements. Can you live through the reno—or will you need somewhere else to stay?
  4. Time commitment. DIY takes more time than you think. Be realistic.
  5. Your team. Do you have a contractor you trust or the skillset to do it yourself?

Fixer uppers can be a great investment if you plan smart and stay flexible. Know your limits—and your vision.
