Well I bought this place around 4-5 months ago. It was in move in condition but since I have OCD I descided to renovate the whole place. I'm living with my parents right now so I can afford to tear the place apart. It has been a slow process as I work 60+ hours a week and thats when I'm in town and not in Detroit. I only get to work on it some weeknights and some weekends. I'm working on the upstairs at the moment. I'm redoing the master bath and both bedrooms upstairs. Then I just plan to paint the downstairs and get rid of those nasty colors and put it hardwoods. I started with the garage first of course

I bet the garage was the first thing you looked at when buying

I'm jealous of your garage door opener. My manual door got old fast.

lol, I wish I had more b4 photos of the garage. boy was it disgusting. the old door and opener were still working but I wanted all new stuff. I just spent the whole weekend painting one room. damn I am too anal retentive with this crap. I'm still not done either. talk about your brain doing some funny stuff. I am so exhausted that the paint which is colored alot like coffee milk was actually starting to smell like coffee milk.

That's a REALLY nice pad!
Have you done anything to the garage floor yet? BEHR makes some sick garage floor paint.

yeah, I plan on doing the epoxy floor paint when I'm done with everything else. I've been using the garage for storage of raw materials while I work on the rest of the place. I'm going to put in a bunch of storage cabinets and stuff when I'm all done with the rest of the condo. Should be quite the bachelor pad when I'm done
