This includes carpet and pad, drywall, insulation, and pressboard.That is just a quick background for you, hopefully it helps when making your decisions.

ask and ye shall receive ) My bid at 45% of ARV ( minor repairs of fresh paint and clean carpets ) was approved...

No carpet. ofgift

for carpet, I use a berber carpet, cheaper and last longer, .55 per sq ft.

If I can measure the size of my floors, I know how much it will cost to install hardwood, carpet, tile, or vinyl on those floors.

If it's a cheap production home, it likely only has one color of flat paint throughout, cheap carpets, etc.After you consider all the costs it would take to complete the home, the price may not be as attractive.

I know my cash flow will not be the best if we rent our first investment property but we are still thinking about it... here's the facts.Bought it for $12k - fully remodeling it with new roof, paint, windows, bathroom, kitchen, carpet for $12k (my fiance has a big construction company!)

If you shop at garage sales, stockpile carpet out of homes that are renovating etc... you can make the numbers look better on the rental park.

It's been a wait they are trying to get the title all cleaned up.Well today my realtor showed us a house in a great neighborhood, 2 bedroom, 1 stall garage (small 832 sq) asking $30,900 - assesed at $49,210 (foreclosure - Freddie Mac), we are going in at $22k for the house and it need about $10k to get it ready to sell but if we were to put carpet/paint in the house for $1k or so we could rent it for $550 easy and then do a lease for 6 mo's then finish it and sell it for $60k - do you think we should do it?

They have stripped the drywall and carpet out of the basement (bi-level).
