Need help with Contractors

Andrew Grimmett
Posted

Hey everyone.

Super new here so be gentle..... I recently got this house for 47k and am looking at getting it cleaned out and rehabbed to rent. There obviously were some squatters living here and am leaning towards a company I have talked to to clean it out and clean the floors and walls. Then I know it has got to have rodents and bugs in the property that will need taken care of ASAP once the place is cleared out. I got this house at such a discounted rate because of the shape that it is in and because it was a friend who I am trying to help out. My plan is to make it rentable and really just give him the profit minus vacancy and my expenses from the HELOC I am taking to make the repairs. The house is a 3 bed 1 bath 1200sq ft house on a concrete slab (no basement) and a detached 2 car oversized garage. I have attached some pictures for reference but they are pretty gross so be warned.



I really am new to all of this and really only got into it now to help someone out. I'll take any advice I can get on contractors and and best practices on getting this project done.

Thank you
