This week’s Transformation Tuesday is from Little Rock, Arkansas.

Walking by the original state of this property, you might not be able to make out the house through the overgrown landscaping and miss the hidden front porch! Inside, there were peach walls as far as the eye could see, and the bathrooms and kitchens were cramped, rough spaces. Now, after our signature "turnkey transformation," this property is undeniably welcoming! 

The idea of remote investing scares a lot of people away. Little do they know that investing out-of-state can be one of the most advantageous ways to invest in real estate.

This week’s Transformation Tuesday is from St. Louis, Missouri.

We could see a lot of potential in this brick home! Located in a great, family-friendly environment, with promising living spaces inside and out, this 70's-built house was a solid investment. What it needed was a freshening up, with an eye toward functionality and consistency. No more patchy floors. No more greens, blues, and dated wallpaper. With a little elbow grease, this property's potential was easy to unearth.

Although COVID-19 still poses a threat to public health, vaccination rates and the lifting of mask mandates have given American life a renewed sense of normalcy.

This week’s Transformation Tuesday is from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma!

This 80's style ranch was in need of some major TLC. Wood accents darkened nearly every room, not to mention the ceiling over the living spaces being caved in due to water damage! Now, you would never know this residence was ever the dingy, dated property it was previously. 

“Expectation vs reality” is a popular form of internet listicle, often sharing the stories of duped customers expecting an amazing product for a cheap price. When that's the set up, the reality is never short of disappointing. 

This week’s Transformation Tuesday is from Dallas-Ft.Worth, Texas!

This brick beauty boasts large living spaces and vaulted ceilings, but the high-pile pink carpets and random brick columns could easily distract from these features. Outside, the front yard was in fine shape, but the back yard was shaggy with let-go landscaping and broken-down fencing. After thorough renovation, now the house feels open and bright for its residents. 

The Lone Star state is home to some of the nation’s most vibrant economies and real estate markets. Houston, San Antonio, and Austin likely come to mind — along with Dallas!  Dallas is the third-largest city in Texas, just behind Houston and San Antonio with an estimated 2020 population of 1,347,120.
