It was in rough shape and I was going to tear it down. 

Another electrician said tear everything out. 

We had one here (homicide) several tears ago (we knew the family) & the cleanup was about $4,000 & I was amazed the place sold that year for the asking price.

I’d tear up the carpet and then have your contractor sand it down and then finish with a nice stain.

We almost used them when we were thinking about tearing down an existing home we bought.

I ask because this property is currently undergoing renovation and doesn't appear to be a tear-down.

Everything is going great so far and I've been looking into doing my next deal.In Chicago, the market can be very expensive and I was considering tearing down my detached garage and rebuilding it with an apartment above the garage.

These numbers are not great but for this area I think they're decent.Also I know that I bump rents in at least 2 of the units, and rent out the garages separate, and maybe even rent out some of the land for boat storage etc.Also the icing on the cake is my long term strategy, which would be to tear down the existing SFH and garage and build at least 4 more 2/1 units.

What are buyers paying these days for a tear-down opportunity in the Morningside neighborhood of Edina, Minnesota?

It took us about 3 years, but we were heavily invested in the stock market these last 5+ years when they've been on such a tear.
