Case Study You have inherited a century old farm house and acreage in a rural area. You have visited the site and made an inspection. The house needs a great deal of repair work to get it marginally livable. You have itemized the most important things that need to be done and estimated the time required as shown below.You plan to use this house for vacations and as a rental property through Airbnb. In fact, your work colleague as already expressed interest in staying over as soon as the property is finished. Your parents have sponsored you with a personal loan of $10.000,-that will give you enough money to buy the supplies and have a spending budget on help from a local contractor and two of his apprentices. You yourself have committed to working 80 hours over your vacation to fix up the house, but you are terrible at carpentry and painting. Your vacation of two weeks starts on Monday the 1st of June, and you prefer to be present when the contractor is on site. Assume you, the contractor and his apprentices all can work up to 8 hrs per day, 5 days per week.You expect that within 2 years of renting the property you will have earned enough money to repay your parents.Each activity is to be performed by one person only.Continually ask yourself the question “when this is done, what else can I start now, or which things can I do at the same time?”.
