We are finally getting somewhere on restoring the "Fowler House" back to its glory.  After several meetings with my designer, Noelle at Studio Boise, we have settled on a design for the interior of the property.  In designing the interior there were several things we really wanted to have to make sure the "Fowler House" appealed to our target market. On the list were the following:Open floor planLarge kitchen with an island4 bedroomsBathroom on each leveland family roomsThe final design has all ...

About 1.5 weeks ago I met my designer, Noelle Martinez, with Studio Boise at the "Fowler House" to walk the property and for her and her husband to take measurements of all rooms in order to create a design.  As we walked the property we discussed the layout and where I was thinking the stair to the basement would be placed.  The house was moved to its current location and placed on a foundation with a 9ft basement.  There was no basement prior to its move.Earlier this week I met with Noelle for...

Recently, Western States Homes, LLC finished a renovation on 22 N Fairview and for the first time in several renovations I decided to stage the house.  I did this for several reasons 1)It is a large house which typically takes longer than usual to sell with the average market time in Nampa being around 50 days right now and 2)It allows potential home owners to visualize what the house will look like with furniture in it.  Being an investor it is worth the extra money to stage a house to help it ...
