Inhaltsangabe

Occasionally good fortune smiles and an opportunity presents itself that turns out to be amazing. Dave Morrow chronicles how lady luck connected him and his new bride with Chip and Joanna Gaines of Magnolia Homes to remodel their house. Dave has repaired and remodeled many old houses, but the design flair of the Mailander House made him believe this one was a real opportunity. His good fortune was to have the creative genius of Joanna Gaines applied to the house he and his new bride purchased in Waco, TX.This story recounts how and why Dave and his wife, Marla Hendricks, through a stroke of luck, bought an old house left for dead and brought it back to life. The cable TV episode showing the remodeling of the Mailander House has been seen by over 40 million viewers. Many people remember this episode because a vintage 1905 bicycle was part of Dave’s office décor. The book describes many of the events not shown on the episode, and what it means to live in a fixer-upper. At times funny, it is an uplifting story of how vision, persistence and willingness to go where others would not can bring tremendous satisfaction and success.
