I have contractors who assist me with my houses, they add a new roof, perform plumbing at the job site, or they work with me to install tile. While they can sit a toilet or remove a vanity, they still miss the little things at the job site. Case in point my house at 3238 Dellwood.
This is a cute 3 bedroom 1 bath home. It needed a LOT of work. So I took it on as a distressed property, I was able to get the house painted on the outside, inside, carpeted, new plumbing, new AC, new kitchen cabinets, new bathroom, new ceilings, ne backyard fence. I really made it look very nice.
But there were little things missing, like landscape, I did get a guy to install some plans and bushes, but I needed some color and I added some pots to the layout with flowers. These pots are nothing huge, just some vinca, some marigolds and some bulbs that are green most of the year. Color against the house, to make it stand out more.
Blinds, I had to add blinds to the inside (some windows were not easy to choose for a blind), but they help to provide privacy in a house. I like my neighbors, but I don't want them to know my business. I added some light fixtures that come on at dusk or with motion, to help with the lights at night. I added some grass seed (bring me some rain!) to the front now I have new grass, new color, and plenty of new items to help compliment what is already there. Caulked holes and cracks, but doing the things that standout as you are the owner, you are the last resort. Sometimes you have to do what you got to do! Its all up to you, to finish and get the job done!
