I'm estimating $3000 for some carpet and paint to spruce up the place.

., appliances, carpets, furnaces, roofs, etc.)Speaking of carpets, new carpets every 3-5 years.Property management.Make ready costs.

purchase price 30k 25% down @ 5% 30 fix 3 plus one SFH built in 1954 new roof, ac, windows, ktichen cabs, counters 1000sq ft Corner Lot 9000+ sqft 700 garage/steel building shop..ran test ad for this alone seems $180 House rents at 750 to 850...I ran test ads plus reserched Market-PMs Section 8 is around $900 Needs $3000k carpet,paint, vinyl, misc use home depot cheap stuff Wells Fargo Appraised $44, 500 arv I have team for maintenance and pm if needed.

I owe him $5,000, but that was supposed to include the carpet which will be roughly $2,000.

It needs some carpet, paint, flooring in kitchen/bath.

Perhaps a combination of gray cement and gray carpet would work?

With $3,000 budgeted (which seems high pending condition for just carpet/paint) and it being the slow point in the construction schedule you should be able to get some great bang for your buck there.

Right now the entire first floor is tile and the stairs and second floor is carpet.

All in all it cost about 30k in materials and the labor for the upgrades (sheetrock, carpet, lights, bathroom, kitchen, windows, and appliances) and the person that we are working with did it for a very reasonable cost about 8k total due to the fact that he got a commission on the front end and also on the sale end.Then we listed the house in August and it sat then sat some more.

There are turn key companies that fund with some down but you need to make sure you are not over paying for a money pit that has been skimmed over with carpet and paint but all the expensive stuff is in bad shape.
