Hi there!
First time homebuyer here (well, this past spring). My husband and I (who knows, maybe he'll post under this username as well), purchased a REO home last May as a 401k, and while we've settled for the most part, there are still a few parts of the house that need minor updating and we will be most likely DIY'ing it, hopefully sooner rather than later... We aren't really in love with the location (it's kind of a long story but essentially we moved for my job- but since I work from home 4 days a week, the possible living locations has been expanded considerably), and already have flipping it on the brain!
I loved getting a 401k- it was so awesome to see the house transform from a sad, moldy house to a comfy little lakehouse- and we don't mind a *few* DIY projects ourselves, and if we were to sell this house in the near future, there's no doubt I'd consider another 401k our even a dated house that we could update as we go. (Hard to find FHA funding if it's got anything more than updating "wrong" with it)
Well... there's a jumbled intro! Looking forward to joining this forum!
