Tips for estimating rehab costs
Hey all,
I have a question for tampa wholesalers out there. I wanted to know how you all are estimating rehab costs. I’ve done research and found that some wholesale gurus will estimate a certain amount per square foot. For example $15 a square foot for minor repairs, $25 a square foot for more serious repairs. I wanted to see if this is a realistic way to estimate rehab costs in the Tampa area market. Also if there are any investors out there who deal with wholesalers a lot who might be able to give me some tips on what the good wholesalers do and what to avoid so I’m not the type of wholesaler I read about all the time who are terrible at their numbers. If anyone has any good book, videos or blogs that might help me I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Stay safe out there!
