Seth and Stephanie Scott were looking for a fixer upper where they could put in some sweat and build their equity. They found that in a 1918 Arts and Crafts style home in the city with beautiful woodwork, hardwood floors that needed refinishing and a large unfinished attic space. They'd like to create a master suite with a sleeping area, lots of storage and a bathroom and have $45,000 to complete the conversion. Finishing this area would increase their square footage by over 50 percent and they hope to see a major increase in value as well.
