The property is a 1300 sq. ft. 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath cape cod in Dumont, NJ. Demo started yesterday, and work should be going on for probably close to 3 months (thanks, holidays!) \u00a0Here are photos of the kitchen and baths as they were yesterday, before demo.<\/p>\n<p>I will update the (slow) progress in this blog, and detail where items are purchased and their cost. Fingers crossed this flip works out, but I know it will be an educational experience at the very least!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_471\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1418.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-471\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-471\" src=\"http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1418-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1418-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1418-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1418-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1418-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-471\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of the bathrooms that is being ripped out and redone.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_473\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1369-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-473\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-473\" src=\"http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1369-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1369-2-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1369-2-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1369-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/greatimpressionshomestaging.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_1369-2-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-473\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of the many pink bathrooms of the 50s and 60s &#8212; soon to be updated.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The start of my own flipping a house adventure in Dumont, NJ.
