Thanks to a lot of teamwork and elbow grease, two Hampton couples have transformed a deteriorating property into a prime piece of real estate.
     Jayme and Mindy Murray and Marilyn and Larry Jurgena joined forces three years ago to purchase a foreclosed property located in their neighborhood. The house had fallen into disrepair and became an eyesore, which motivated the couples to take possession and spruce up the block.
     The Murrays and Jurgenas feared someone would buy the property and rent the house without completing any repairs or updates.
     “That’s what would have happened, unfortunately,” said Marilyn Jurgena. “We just wanted to fix it up and make it look good again, because it used to be a real nice property.”
