After 2 years of blood, sweat and fears I`m finally coming to the end of a
long building rehab project. I bought a historic building (originally built
in 1865, 2 story, 1250 sq ft each floor) in a small town in southern New
Jersey. The commercial building was in terrible shape which was reflected in
the selling price of 70k. However, we felt there were a number of positive
things such as a corner location on the town`s main street (constant steady
traffic), located in an officially defined historic district, large corner
lot over an acre and a detached 2 car garage.

We took the plunge after considering it for quite a while. Two years and
$140,000 additional investment later it`s looking real good. The Historic
Commission did little to interfere with our plans since the building was in
bad shape. We replaced the main beam which had some rot, poured a concrete
floor in the basement, jacked up the floors to straighten things out where
possible, re-sheathed the entire building, replaced all windows and re-sided
with Cedar Impressions cedar shake look-a-like. Also all new HVAC, electric,
plumbing and fixtures.
2nd floor has 14 - 7 1/2 foot windows. Obviously the natural light is great.

We are using the 2nd floor as an office for our computer software company.
The 1st floor will be reopened as a bakery (it was previously a bakery
several years ago - we bought all the equipment very cheap since the owner
had no intention of moving the things out.

Considering all this information, over 200k invested and the fact that I
personally spent hundreds of hours of my own time doing the work that I was
capable of doing, I`m looking for a little reinforcement that I didn`t make
bad decision (or maybe you may think it was not a good decision). I know
there are a lot of factors such as personal satisfaction, length of time we
will hold the investment and so forth. Regardless, please give me your
thoughts on doing something like this. Do the numbers add up? Are there any
basic formulas that I can use to compare the results? Any websites which
allow DIY`ers to document what they did and compare `war stories`?

Thanks for your input.

There`s more than money involved. Any business calculator will let you
know the money side of this investment. Nothing beats the process
though. What else would you have done with that time and money? Don`t
look back. Go forward. Many of these projects work out way down the
road. In the end, you only have to make your marginal costs back
monthly so it doesn`t turn into an alligator. Beyond that, it`s
totally up to you how to feel about it.

By Michelle C. Carr-Crowe

Whether you live in Cupertino, San Jose, Santa Clara, Sunnyvale or Los Altos, your property’s value benefits from being in the Fremont Union High School District (commonly referred to as “Cupertino Schools”).

Today, Measure G is on the ballot. Below is a synopsis of the proposal.

The measure exempts homeowners who are seniors and/or disabled. Please remember to exercise your right to vote today!
