Advice needed - what's your experience on rehab costs like this

Hello everyone, 

We have our eye on this project. 3/1/1040. 

It needs a lot of work, in San Antonio, Tx.  What do you think rehab will go for?

Looking for some insight...Is this too much to take on for some rehab newbies?

Cheers,

Alice

Replied

I work with a lot of new out of state investors that buy here in San Antonio, and I would strongly discourage any of my clients from getting into this type of project, unless they have significant construction experience. Not only is it a big project, but it's also surrounded by dilapidated properties. There is a lot of revitalization going on in that general area, but this particular neighborhood hasn't seen enough of it yet for me to want to pour a lot of time and money into it. Even if you're able to rehab the property within a reasonable budget, this isn't an area that's renting terribly well (if this is a BRRRR). Have you spoken to a local property manager yet? If it's a pure flip, you might be able to make it work if the price is right.
