Transformation Tuesday showcases how REI Nation revitalizes older homes to meet the demands of long-term, turnkey investing. This week’s transformation features 200 Timberline Drive in North Little Rock, AR, a 1971-built, 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom single-family home offering 1,808 square feet and a two-car garage. This property required a system-forward renovation to improve durability, efficiency, and overall investment performance—ensuring it meets REI Nation’s standards for resident-ready, long-term ownership.
With a final rehab budget of $63,500, this renovation prioritized the upgrades that have the greatest impact on long-term operability and risk reduction.
Key areas of focus included:
HVAC replacement: New furnace and AC system to improve efficiency, reliability, and resident comfort
Plumbing repairs: Extensive plumbing work paired with a new water heater to support consistent performance
Electrical upgrades: Electrical repairs and updates to meet modern safety and operational standards
Insulation improvements: Added insulation to support energy efficiency and HVAC performance
Roof and structural maintenance: Targeted roof repairs, foundation crack repairs, and concrete work to protect the home envelope
Interior restoration: Flooring, paint, and fixture updates completed to ensure the home is fully functional and resident-ready
These improvements reflect a disciplined approach focused on longevity rather than surface-level upgrades.
See the transformation for yourself:North Little Rock offers stable housing demand supported by a diversified employment base and accessible price points. For turnkey investors, the market rewards long-term ownership—particularly when older homes are reinforced through system-level renovations that reduce future maintenance exposure and operational risk.
