Complicated rooflines, modern details that require a bunch of steel framing, excessively large great rooms, spa-like bathrooms, etc would push you into the $1,000-2,000 range.  

Some of these loans (or even the lenders themselves) have or will sell at a discount, and to the new buyer (maybe a loan to own buyer?)

We painted, replaced flooring, added countertops, fixtures, and bathroom finishes.

@Brandon WongHello, I put together a spreadsheet model a while ago for calculating IRRs on rental investments, as an attempt to capture comparable returns by discounting future cash flows (in REI you also hear about cash-on-cash, which is typically at a point in time), and it sounded like you are having a related predicament.

They could be listing it as discount points instead, but if that's NOT the case, you should have a credit (not a cost) for a 7% rate I'd think. 

Having  more flexible cancellation policies, having good reviews, offering discounts, updating listings periodically, not cancelling on people, etc

This is without paying discount points or buying down the rate. 

While prices have risen, there are still good opportunities for fix-and-flip projects if you can find properties at a discount or in need of renovations.That said, market conditions can shift quickly, and Tampa has become more competitive.

Hi all, For a rental home, tenant says bathroom floor keep getting wet, even though it is small amount. at first, they thought they dropped some water. after wiping water, however, it keep coming back and now they think there is some water leak. my plumber went to check and found no issue with bath sink. he thinks it must be shower leak. the shower was redone last year by a contractor, who i ended up firing since he did not show up to work later. anyway, i hired water damage restoration (Servpro) company to check how much damage there is now. unfortunately, based on my research, it is very hard to find source of shower leak. i am thinking of rebuilding shower. i hired a kitchen remodel contractor and he gave me two options; either fix shower pan only, or (optionally) rebuild shower as well. 

The market wasn’t as strong as it had been when we first agreed to terms, and he needed the discount to make it work.Now, I know my market.
