Hey, I'm in the USA here. Just got a mortgage a few months ago at 5.75%, which was down from 7.25% when I first applied for a mortgage in January. It still sucks. Our new house was a complete wreck with structrual damage I flipped, although the exterior is still rough. Huge 3 car garage with plenty of room for bikes + toys. I'll need to get some pictures.
Here's a house I flipped last year. My first flip. If I had listed it about 4 weeks sooner than I did I would've made a good chunk of money, but I listed it right after the rates started going up and it meant I worked 9 months for free. But I didn't loose money and it was a good experience. I removed a few structural walls, opened up the floor plan, made it a 3 bedroom (previously was a 2), new HVAC system, 18 piers plus 2 full length girders in the crawlspace, new porch, new windows, replaced a few walls from termite damage (clean your gutters people, it's not hard). I did 90% of the work myself.
