Edina, MN Home Remodel | Lower Level Tour Phase 2

February 10, 2023

We’re back with a NEW Lower Level Video Tour (Phase 2) from our investor’s Edina, MN home renovation! The insulation installation phase is an important one. We know that quality insulation will create high energy efficiency and save money on energy costs, but is it environmentally friendly too? In research by insulationinstitute.org, one value of a home’s energy efficiency is that it “reduces power plant CO2 emissions to lower carbon footprints.” This is certainly a positive impact we can get behind!

If you are looking for an insulation contractor referral, or would like more information about remodeling and real estate in your area, contact us today!

Investment Properties

April 4, 2016

There are so many great options out there for investments. One that is very popular, is investing in single-family homes, townhomes or condos. A lot of times the real estate market can be a great way for you to invest your money in hopes to get a great gain in the end.

If you have considered investing, why not invest in real estate? If you are able to purchase a home, for the right price of course, there may be a great opportunity for you to go through and fix up the home in order to resell. You could also purchase a home, fix it up if need be and then rent it out. There are so many great options for purchasing real estate and the Better Living Group is always here to help.

If you do purchase a single-family property, there are typically two different types that are great for investments. One would be a home that needs cosmetic work such as new appliances, paint, carpet, and maybe some fixtures throughout the home. This is a great way to spruce up a property and update it to today’s modern style in hopes to sell it for a good profit. This is typically the first type of investment property that investors purchase.

Secondly, purchasing a home that needs a full rehab is a different story. By full rehab I mean the whole home may need walls torn down to open up space, new doors, new appliances, maybe finishing a basement, putting on a deck and so much more. Of course, this type of home does need a lot more work and a lot more money put into it in order to make it ready for resale. However, if purchased for the right price, the equity may be of vast amount.
