We’re taking the house down to the studs and doubling the size from 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom to 4 bedrooms and 3 baths with many new amenities.
Thanks to Flip & Give, it really will be the community’s turn to have the final say on how this house turns out. We’re counting on you to pick the home’s look and feel and help us make legitimate design decisions.
Every two weeks, The Moore Company will include an online video updating the community on the progress of the home and allow them to vote online on the choice for each item.
Graeme and Justin, like many of The Moore Company’s REALTORS®, have renovated and flipped around a dozen homes over the years. During those previous renovations, the couple would often post questions on social media like, “hey, which window color do you like best?” or “which granite do you like better with these cabinets?” The engagement from social media users surprised them both. The feedback they received encouraged them to take public input one step further… so here we have Flip & Give!
Voting and Construction Schedule
The 24-week process will provide at least 10 opportunities for the community to pick the home’s look and feel. This schedule is subject to change based on construction. Check back often for updates.

What happens after construction?
The give portion of this project is the most important component. Once the project is complete and the home is sold, The Moore Company will donate the net proceeds to local philanthropic efforts in the Midlands. We are soliciting nominations from you for some good causes around town. Nominate your favorite local charity by clicking here. The final vote during the Flip & Give project will allow community members to select which nonprofits will receive donations.
Who is The Moore Company, anyway?
The Moore Company is Columbia’s leading boutique, locally-owned real estate firm and is excited to be able to take the public behind the scenes of what it’s really like to undergo a major renovation … and to give the viewing public the opportunity to help choose layouts and finishes (from light fixtures, to countertops to cabinets!) People love watching home renovation projects on TV, and now they’ll actually get the chance to be part of the action!
