In this Investor Agents Podcast onsite, we dive into Historic Home Renovation with investor Dustin Seltzer at 2 Belmar St, Coatesville, PA. Dustin walks through a 1900-era, stone/“Natco” brick four-bed (now 1.5 bath with new first-floor powder room), sharing lessons on old-home challenges: slate roof repairs, full rewire from knob-and-tube, PEX manifold + all-new PVC, oil radiator heat, ~30 new windows, subfloor leveling, and engineered hardwood throughout. We cover budgeting (>$100K), five dumpsters of demo, comps ($350–$375K ARV), and Dustin’s playbook for fast, conservative underwriting and funding flips via HELOC.
