Countertops and vanities replaced, cabinets painted, new flooring, new appliances and some new fixtures.

Average sales price ~$215,000.)This is a big project, needing all appliances, toilets, counter tops, sinks, bathtubs and showers, flooring, and sheet rock, with possible termite damage and carport repair.I'm thinking about offering $150,000.

Once you know the houses in your area pretty well, using those 25 components makes it a lot easier to estimate back-of-the-napkin.For example, I know that for a specific type of four bedroom, two bath house in my area, it costs about $2,000 for all new electrical fixtures, about $2,000 for all new plumbing fixtures, about $3,000 for interior paint, about $7,000 for new flooring, about $8,000 for new cabinets and countertops, about $2,500 for all new appliances and about $1,000 for miscellaneous cosmetic stuff.So, when I walk into one of those houses, I know right off the bat that I will spend about $25,000 for a full cosmetic rehab.But that exact same scope of work for a different type of house with different finishes in another state where I rehab would cost much different for a cosmetic rehab. 

Opened the kitchen to the living area by adding a 15ft bar area, featuring quartz kitchen countertops and brushed bronze hardware (also found throughout the house.)

I think its realistic that i could pay cash, and renovate the property with all the proceeds of our personal home sale... and would then plan to refi and pull our initial cash back out... leaving us with pretty much the same mortgage payment we currently pay.. but for a larger property, worth more, and still have cash from the sale of our orginal house.... i would love to know everyones thoughts on the idea.. as well as thoughts of if you would sell the house given the increase in price per sqft from when we purchase it... ps since the purchase of our house, the kitchen has been redone with quartz counter tops and tile backsplash if that changes anything.

He was contracted for install on some of the units for LVP flooring, cabinets, counter tops, doors, base boards, some wall repair and a few other things.

My plan so far is to fence the back yard, redo the kitchen cabinets and counter tops (quartz), add washer/dryer, add dishwasher and microwave, and maybe redo the floors (currently vinyl sheet) but I doubt this will get me $9K on the appraisal.

The house has been remodeled pretty well with an open concept, granite counter tops etc.

I made custom concrete countertops from scratch and installed them.
