Purchase price: $70,000 Cash invested: $50,000 Sale price: $250,000 SFH old but good bones we turned it into a masterpiece with features like fireplace above the stand alone tub.

We can get an addition (family room, bathroom, bedroom) done for 12k or 15k with a fireplace.

We get a 1-car garage, fireplace, huge kitchen, and our rent is WAY below market.

We do that, for example, with fireplaces - all fireplaces are declared decorative only and are non-functional.
