The property is in a B area, with C schools, its 3 bed 1.5 bath, 1200 sqft, 2 story, garage, no basement, it is in need of some moderate rehab (exterior wood repair, garage door, flooring, paint, bathroom tile, roof sooner than later, etc)If I were to buy at 76k that drops my ROI by about 4% a year.  

An example would be decking under shingles, or subfloor under bathroom tile.

I plan to hire out the plumbing and electrical and do the painting, tiling and flooring myself.  

Upper level built 1968, basement built 1992. 3 bed/2 bath.16 acre/1256 sqft Great view over BremertonNew laminate flooring in kitchen and entry waysNew tile flooring in upper level bathroomsPropane fireplace on both floorsBackyard deck on upper level Access to outside from basementAttached shedThe driveway is shared with another home so you are only able to fit 2 cars at most, but one will block the other.

I'm sure various other questions will arise.From the perspective of buying, there would be a survey for each parcel in addition to tile work (ie search, etc).

Both units recently renovated with new carpet, paint, countertops, tile.

I don't charge for estimates, but I cap all finishes per UOM, it doesn't matter really what type of tile they color as long as it is < $5/sf and if it is more than that, they pay the difference.

Why do tiles crack or break?  

This tells you from the outside that there is opportunity to add value in updating the property, but also, the inside may match the outside (original cabinets, pink tile in bathroom etc.)Aside from deferred maintenance, look for properties that are on busy streets, next to a gas station, or has any challenges to them.

It is nice quality trafficmaster that I have used in higher end houses.My question is it okay to use in a bathroom instead of tile?
