The Holtz Family (HOH, LLC) and their renovation of a stunning 1885 historic home in Glendale, were the feature of one of our 2024 Pro Tips from the Property Flippers blog. This renovation perfectly captured the architectural beauty and historical significance of the property while simultaneously transforming the home into a modernize gem. Megan graciously shared invaluable insights drawn from her seven years of experience in the flipping business and her role as the owner of a successful staging company. To read more about their 2024 flip see the original blog here.
Almost 2 years later, Megan and Rob's flipping business has gained tremendous momentum with a concentration area in their own backyard- Glendale, Ohio. Today's blog explores the multiple flips this team has accomplished since we last sat down with them in 2024.

Their story serves as an inspiration for anyone considering a similar venture, demonstrating that with passion, dedication, and a clear vision, it is possible to leave a lasting positive impact on your community.
When I asked Megan if she had any new insights to offer from her recent experiences since the last blog, here is what she shared:
Tips from the Flipper
Fine tuning what is a want in a house vs. what is a need to get the property sold for top dollar. There is a constant balancing act of what I would like to see in a property verses what will get it sold.
Appealing to the broadest buyer and having the house be both beautiful and comfortable to live in for our target market are the most important things to keep in mind when rehabbing a property.
We live in Glendale, love Glendale and want to see more families filling homes, schools and getting involved in the community.Â
The Financer
The details, pop of color, added character, strategic opening and closing of walls are all elements that make these homes desirable. Throughout their renovation process, Megan's design elements emphasize the importance of balancing respect for every home's historical elements with the need for contemporary conveniences by selecting period-appropriate materials to integrating modern amenities that enhance the home's livability.
The staging here is an artform within itself. You may want to consider staging your properties to increase the sale price and perceived value of your flips. A 2025 survey conducted by the NAR had the following results about staging properties:
Twenty-nine percent of real estate agents reported that staging their sellers' homes received a 1% to 10% increase in the dollar value offered.
When homes were staged, 30% of home sellers' real estate agents observed slight decreases in time on the housing market, while 19% noted a significant reduction in selling time.
Staging the living room was most important for home buyers (37%), followed by the primary bedroom (34%) and kitchen (23%). Among home sellers, the most commonly staged rooms were the living room (91%), primary bedroom (83%), dining room (69%) and kitchen (68%).
I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite hallmark of a Hotlz renovation. If you'd like inspiration for craftsmanship, top dollar returns and quick sales that leave the community wanting more, I suggest taking time to review these projects as well as Megan's tips for successful flips.
