Often better to get them out, clean it up, make your repairs and do your make ready and show a sparkling product. 

My friend said the rehab numbers were just made up, they broke even on the project but got big bonuses from HGTV to help make the project "sparkle".

If you have a flood, busted pipe, ground water, you pretty much just let it dry and maybe go over it with paint and sparkles once a year. 

YOU ENTER THE HOME WITH BEAUTIFUL UPGRADED TILE ENTRANCE INTO A LARGE OPEN LIVING AREA WITH VIEWS OF THE BEAUTIFUL BACKYARD AND SPARKLING POOL.

Its plain with subtle granite chips for sparkles and it lets the backsplash shine (you have to be super plain on a backsplash if you use granite-- the granite will be the star) and the Daich is really easy to repair down the road if anything happens to it.

Quote from @Sparkle Carlock: I am looking to dive into investing this year.

My name is Sparkle - (yes it is my REAL name, haha).

Thank you, sparkle is a must before installing the tiles ?

In all honesty, I think my perception of A  and what my agent says it's an A/B/C etc...is rather different.Based on what I have seen, true A communities can hardly be invested in because they have huge HOA fees, renting restrictions, and overall, they look like picture perfect, sparkling little gems.

@Sparkle Carlock I have not done a flip but I have tried.
