Trying, I guess, to compensate for our possible previous faux pas our offer was $2000 above asking price with a few contingencies. ( first floor had to be empty before closing (these were newer tenants anyway), we wanted verification of rent roll for the past year and obviously inspection..yadda yadda.)  

Property manager suggested flooring for the kitchen and baths could be Allure red rock or Allure Ashlar tiles.For the LR and Hall could be Allure Ultra planks in Vintage Oak Cinnamon.

For cheap, pick up two black pull handles for the center and faux black hinges, two on each side to dress up the garage door (make it look like french doors).  

Well do the math.I am not promoting any area, I just think people should do a correct analysis to determine a good market AND that is not using price to rent or crap rates or cash faux.

In fact sometimes the Midwest cash faux is just your own money being handed back to you. 

Other than selling Avon, baked goods, and making jewelry, we are both technichly retired [ will finally have closing on our business next week after months of title problems] and since other than some new appliances, bathroom sink, and gas furnace repair, everything else is totally simple cosmetic stuff we can do in our spare time.[ we need to live there for a year anyway, and might choose to stay after that] We won't get started working on it for a few weeks because we are getting our Bennett house ready to sell, but when we do, we only intend on making the kitchen serviceable, and the living room nice before moving in [ the bathroom works fine, but eventually we need to get rid of its' all pinkness other than a brown tub!

Purchase price: $442,000 Cash invested: $160,000 Sale price: $700,000 Old 1920 vintage home that has structural issues.

they never done this before in the past 15 years I lived here.should I hide any cash, credit cards or jewelry that is laying around the house and electronics as well that can possibly become stolen?

Leave out the faux, the "!"

I would not put it in a kitchen or bathroom and in those cases I put down vinyl trafficmaster with a faux tile design.
