Retro Ranch Home Tour The Retro Ranch Reno was a quick flip that we only lived in for 6 months in 2015. It gave us our fair share of challenges, and after spending two months living in the basement while we renovated the main level we were overjoyed to move upstairs. In our short 6 months we made some serious improvements. Sadly we didn't make any money and we ended up selling this house a bit too soon to come out ahead.
