Rehab Cost Estimation in North Texas

[Andrew Jones]

I'm hoping to get contractor estimates and inspections during due diligence, but I need a shorthand in the meantime to help me filter deals.  Ideally, I'd be able to use an approximation like: cosmetic rehab $20/sqft.  However, this is outside of my area of expertise and experience.  I need something that helps me know what's practical to follow up on, and what I can auto-pass.  Any suggestions?
