The document that follows in this report is data assembled for Triple O Corporation. The financial project in question is a home renovation for a purchased property in the Gwinnet County area. That area is just south and east of Alpharetta, Georgia in the Atlanta Metropolitan area. The data points that shall be covered in this report include the average home price in Gwinnett County, the renovation cost involved for the home that is being purchased, the contingency cost and other operating costs that exist, the sales price and the overall net profit from the sale.According to real estate site Zillow, the median price of a home in Gwinnett County is about $186,300. Note that this is the median home price and not the average home price as they are not the same thing.

The average home price in Gwinnett County actually dropped a lot in light of the recession that happened in the late 2000's, that being the Great Recession that ran from 2007 to 2009 and that has really not been recovered from since in many ways. Indeed, the average home price in 2008 was a rather soaring $213,000. By 2012, that number had fallen by more than a fourth, all the way to $157,000. This number is even lower than where things were more than a decade ago in 2003, when they average was at $174,000. Prices are starting to edge back up but it will take some time for the area to recover (Young, 2014).
Strategy

As far as an overall strategy to do a home renovation and make a profit, the key is to find a property that is less than the prevailing "comps" and other homes in the area. The house can be bought at a discount and the idea is to renovate the house and sell it at a price…

The nastier parts of Detroit are full of abandoned and burned houses, crimes go unreported or at least unanswered and local agencies are uniquely pathetic at completing and providing even basic services at a satisfactory level.

The banking system would likely be changed forever. If thousands of armed thugs went rampaging across the nation forcing people out of their homes, into the streets, and then destroying the properties, leaving the occupants homeless

And we must take into consideration what would happen if, somewhere down the line, we encountered the very real possibility of changed financial circumstances. The financial knots we're tying ourselves into now, as we scramble to purchase homes and wind up owning less of them, can have serious long-term ramifications. Because today's overall tighter finances often necessitate putting off major purchases, many adults don't buy their first home until they're
