Advice for first flip, nightmare bathroom.

[Robert Arroyo]

So I’m working on my first flip in the Central Valley, got a killer deal on a distressed property from a family friend. The rehab is going at an average pace but we’re almost ready to tackle....this really awkward bathroom! The toilet is on a throne which seems unsafe and not up to code, I will post a picture so everyone can see the awkward bathroom as well as some of the progress. I need some serious advice and guidance on what I should do for this remodel. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated and I will most certainly find a way to pay back the favor!

We have a couple like this.  They're on a slab, so when the bathrooms were added, they had to build up to fit the plumbing without hammer jacking the whole place.

This a slab on grade?  Above my pay grade how to change it in an economical fashion, but would answer the why question. 

If not on a slab, pull the toilet and top sheet to see what's going on.  If on a slab, make a larger platform maybe so not such a 'thronie' trip/hanging hazard .
