Flipped Grey Bruce: A Story of Community, Passion, and Purpose
About two months ago, our trusted colleague, friend, and brokerage owner, Mike, at Century 21 In-Studio Realty pitched us the idea of buying a house and flipping it for charity. We knew it was an amazing idea but would be a challenge to pull it off. The vision is quickly becoming a reality, and it's incredible to see how it's all coming together. With the support of local trades, suppliers, and volunteers, this project is shaping up to be something truly special. It’s going to be cool to follow along and watch the transformation unfold.
The Search for the Perfect House
Finding the right house wasn’t easy. Many homes were toured, several offers were made, and plenty of competition was faced before finally finding the perfect one. The moment the house come for sale on MLS, we knew it was the one. Lovingly built by the current owners about 40 years ago, it was dated but has amazing bones and even better potential. After some nail-biting moments in competition with another buyer, success was had and on January 14th, the dream officially kicked off.
A Community That Cares
From the beginning, it was clear this project was going to be something special. Flipped Grey Bruce isn’t just about renovating a house—it’s about bringing people together for a cause greater than themselves. Local tradespeople, suppliers, and community members are stepping up in incredible ways, offering their time, skills, and resources. Whether it's electricians, plumbers, or painters, everyone is playing a crucial part in making this house a home again. As the project progresses, more local partners continue to join, eager to contribute to something meaningful. If you want to be a part of the project, we encourage you to sign up here.
The Exciting Road Ahead
We knew this was going to be an adventure, and we wanted to bring everyone along for the ride. That’s why we’re creating an 8-part series on YouTube, where you can watch every step of the process—from the first swing of the sledgehammer to the final touches that make it shine. The previous owners, who poured decades of memories into the home, are excited to follow along too, and that just adds another layer of meaning to it all.
Be Part of the Journey
We invite you to follow our journey, cheer us on, and maybe even get inspired to start your own community project. Whether you're a homeowner, a business, or someone who simply wants to see good things happen, there’s a place for you in this story.
