East Kildonan 'Before' Walk-through

We took possession of this property on November 1st 2015! This great looking 1200 sqft 3 bedroom home in East Kildonan is a perfect buy-fix-sell that was in great shape on day one and is going to look even better when it hits the market. 

One of the things we look closely at when buying homes in Winnipeg is the 'vintage' or time period it was built. As building code has changed over the years old practices of knob and tube electrical and asbestos insulation has gone by the wayside. However thousands of Winnipeg's older homes still contain many of these old practices and require a complete over haul.

This home in East Kildonan was built in 1955 and offers a much more accepted level of construction then many built in the 1900-1920's. It pays to always keep in mind the year the home was constructed prior  to the start of any renovation project.
