After a successful first flip Peter has decided to try his luck again. With his wish list in mind and the help of his real estate agent Cindy Newton, he’s ready to navigate the ever changing real estate market. After selecting his ideal flip property and negotiating the purchase the real work begins and walls start coming down.

Now that Peter has purchased his next home to flip it’s time to dive in and get started with the renovations. The front entrance and living room are crucial spaces when upgrading a home. These two spaces have great character so Peter has good bones to work with. Peter plans to splurge on an exquisite marble mosaic floor to wow visitors right as they enter but he’ll offset the cost in the living room with his DIY built-in storage project.

Peter wants to preserve the original wall panelling and ceiling mouldings in the dining room. Unfortunately the upstairs reno causes the ceiling to collapse and dashes Peter’s hopes of salvaging the architecture. He now needs to fix the ceiling and come up with a way to bring back the character that was lost. Sounds like a chance for a DIY project!

After having to fill in the doorway between the bedroom and the entranceway Peter is hoping to spend minimally in this space. With fresh paint and an injection of colour from fun fabrics he’s well on his way to achieving his goal. The bonus to this bedroom will be the DIY custom storage unit Peter will create with big box kitchen cupboards. A surprise hit of colour in the closet finishes off the project, a feature that buyers are sure to remember.

Peter’s main focus with this room is to show its versatility. He wants potential buyers to be able to see the value in this room be it an office or a guest room. Peter’s challenge is to combine these functions and find a middle ground for the decor.

The main floor bathroom will be used by guests and homeowner alike. Peter needs to create a functional and beautiful space while staying on budget. Maintaining the current footprint will save on construction costs allowing Peter to spend the rest of his budget on the high end finishes buyers will be expecting

Peter has decided to preserve the traditional character of the house by maintaining the galley kitchen. Many buyers expect an open concept space so he’ll need to defend his decision by wowing them with exceptional space planning and fabulous décor. The use of high end appliances, a custom counter top and a sleek glass tile backsplash combined with ample storage is a good start. A modern colour palette and a DIY kitchen art project finish off the space.

One of the key selling features of this house was the huge undeveloped attic space. With the help of a Residential Designer, Peter plans on creating a master bedroom retreat that will add major square footage and bring the house from a two bedroom to a three bedroom dwelling. A new bamboo floor and luxe linens bring the space to another level and Peter’s bench recovering DIY pulls the space together.

An ensuite bathroom is a must for Peter’s new loft style master bedroom. With enough space for a separate shower and bathtub Peter chooses an island style tub — but has he gotten in over his head? Potential buyers will be wowed by the expansive space and the high end marble countertop and floor tiles. Peter’s money saving trick is a sleek DIY floating mirror secured with a French cleat that reflects light and brightens the space.

Peter is completely transforming this massive unfinished basement. He’s taking it from one open area and creating many functional spaces. Once the in-floor heating and the walls have gone up Peter is ready to create the ultimate family room. Warmth and cosiness are essential and Peter plans on accomplishing these elements with a warm wall colour, wool carpeting and electric fireplace, not to mention the stunning stone wall surrounding the fireplace.

The second half of Peter’s basement will be an unexpected bonus for buyers. A bathroom and bedroom easily make up a guest suite while the spacious laundry room makes doing the laundry less of a chore. The blue and white nautical theme coordinates the spaces and the striped DIY shower curtain with silver grommets acts as a focal point.

The green space that came with the house isn’t very big so Peter needs to create a low-maintenance backyard entertaining area that any homeowner will be happy to use.

Now that Peter has invested months of hard work in his house it’s time to see if it will pay off. His real estate agent Cindy Newton is back to hold an agent open house and create some buzz around the property.
