This step must be done carefully to avoid further damage.Structural Repairs: Address any structural damage first, including the roof, walls, and foundation.Systems Repair: Repair or replace electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems as needed.Interior Restoration: Once the structural and system repairs are complete, focus on restoring the interior, including insulation, drywall, flooring, and fixtures.Safety and Health Concerns:Air Quality: Ensure proper ventilation and air quality during and after the restoration process to remove smoke odors and contaminants.Mold Remediation: Check for and address any mold growth, which can be a common issue in fire-damaged properties due to water used in firefighting.Final Inspections:City Inspections: Coordinate with the city for final inspections to ensure that the property is safe and habitable.Fire Department Clearance: Obtain clearance from the Fire Department confirming that the property is safe to occupy.I hope this helps, best of luck!

I'm needing a roof replacement.

Stainless steel appliances, new roof, new porch, new siding.

On a new build $275k is the sweet spot but if you go up to like $320 it better have a steep roof 9ft ceilings and curb appeal front or it will sit up to 90 days before selling.Its basically what most people can afford around here.

Depending on how many you go through, heaven help you if you have that, in addition to a major expenditure (i.e HVAC failure, roof) For people with not great cash flow, you wipe out yearly profits every time.

after about $550,000 in remodel costs we reopened the wash under a new name with new logos and branding. we introduced targeted online marketing ads, negotiated wholesale pricing deals with local car dealerships to offer a year of free carwashes with the purchase of a new vehicle. created a monthly newsletter and sourced emails from local businesses. all in all I would say we double or tripled the bottom line numbers of the business in six months and boosted google reviews thru the roof!
