The only things better about our house are a really nice covered deck, a new fence to come, and we are situated on a big corner lot.So considering that we are already going to have to spend $2,500 for a fence and bathroom stuff, what would you do about the painting?

A little background:All through college my business partner and my self ran a construction company renovating other peoples kitchens , bathrooms, decks, etc. ( doing all the work ourselves). 

Having said that, the last time I meet up with an appraiser for a conventional loan purchase of a rental property, she pointed out a few pieces of rotted siding but failed to mention the more serious safety issues of the rotted deck that was attached to the house by the rotted siding and also failed to mention that the stairs and railing were loose and rotted too.An FHA or VA appraiser would have mentioned health and safety issues but the conventional appraiser overlooked those issues. 

Btw, when I asked him about fixing issues in the work that he did (like a warranty); he replied that I can call him anytime to fix it for free but there will be no issues since he is e-decking and tearing off the old roof and putting a new roof.

The replacement of a roof, carpets, air conditioning and heating equipment, appliances and other electrical or mechanical equipment, wood decks, parking lot, and so forth.

I don't get great deals on repairs like full time rehabbers do and the worst I ever hit was about $32/foot and that was basically a full gut job (50 piers, tear off roof and all decking, down to the studs on everything, new HVAC system, everything

The construction work is mostly cosmetic with the biggest items being fixing a deck and kitchen rehab work. 

Hi Folks,Seller declined our conventional loan offer (225k, full asking price), seller and her agent don't think the property will pass appraisal/inspection process (needs roof/siding/decking work).

I am afraid my deal is too thin,  my budget is $50k for kitchen , 2 bathrooms, deck, refinish floor, whole house painting, simple landscaping, new  furnace and water heater, and some electrical and plumbing work.
