This does not include furniture, hot tub ($4k), decorations and startup supplies.

If it is, a support beam can be put in place either in the ceiling (attic area) or it can be made visible and decorative.

The biggest issue is the houses sell as UNfurnished.It would require a $30-40k downpymt to buy these houses but then another $30-40k to decorate & furnish them nicely (this includes all furniture up to & including window treatments, hot tub, etc.

But if I go a little farther away from town I could find a deal for around 100k for the same size house....Having said that the house might not be designed or decorated a well as the other.

We have had food catered, painting/wine events, Christmas decorating contest, Halloween costume contests and any other event you can think of.

Example: you have $50K to rehab the house. your draw request says that you will spend $12,500 for "cabinetry", $9,500 for "bathroom accessories", and $10,000 for "decorations"... but you go ahead and start changing the plumbing, electric, and put a new HVAC.... well, the bank wont give you any money until you get to the $12,500 cabinets, or the $9,500 bathroom accessories. 3) The bank will keep 10% of each draw until the end. 4) The contingency reserve can be requested at "anytime"; HOWEVER, Unless your bank feels the changes in the work were necessary, they wont give you the money till the end.5) Choose right your contractor before the loan closes...

I did some research after that and found out the following: the unit was dated (bad decor), managed and advertised by the owner on VRBO.

Thanks Leah, I’ll go ahead and add the minor decor in the entrance.

We are living in a townhouse that I grew up in and all the decor is his.

Thrift shop pictures and decor. $10 microwave oven is still working.
