Home in Carson California

[Isaac Fernandez]

I'm in the middle of buying a home in Carson California but I can't find contractors to come in price out the repairs I'm wondering if it's worth it.

I'm getting the house for $500,000 if it was completely fixed up it be worth $550,000. The best estimate that I've gotten for repairs to the house is $50,000.

Hey Isaac, somehow I ran across this thread and Carson peaked my interest since I'm from LB. Do you have access to the property yet? I've had luck just posting a gig on Craigslist...then paying the "contractor" @ $200 or so to give you a ballpark estimate by category. I basically lifted a template off the internet for him to fill out....think about those "walk thru" documents when you move in/out of a rental; where it lists each part of the house and you list any damage you see.
