So they're ending up with more square footage to sell, but it's "low amenity" square footage.Also the appliances, roof, cabinets and countertops are all lower quality than the '06 builds had!

I also keep a simple journal of what I do each day, it can be as simple as “painted bedroom” or “installed kitchen cabinets”.

new sheetrock new cabinets new toilets and appliances that is why the 30K rehab costs and why tey rent so fast....No splash and dash jobs....If I join I haveinsvestors willing to buy at the 60K mark and will put 12K in each so they will have cash flow on a 30 year AM..Guess we will see when I get there if they are TELLIN the TRUTH to truthteller...Really impressed with the dialouge here!

That includes partial sheetrock, vanities, kitchen redo(maybe cabinets), texture, paint, crown, fixtures, electrical fixes, etc.Most of the house needs sheetrock, the kitchen has to be completely redone, it needs at least one bathroom (but it will be WAY more marketable with 2), it needs ALOT of remodeling thru the entire house, it needs all new windows, a new roof, a new furnace, the upstairs is nothing but studs, it needs to have some fill brought in, there are two trees that have grown onto the roof and the whole house needs to be sided.Phew.

Came into my home, and called my fiancee and I a scumbag, because a few dishes were in my sink and my cabinets were not washed.
