The 13,400 originally listed a few years ago when market was soft at around 2 million but short sold at around 1,000,000.

No so easy to you'll need plastic sheeting, brushes, rollers and primer for the paint.

I was unhappy with the realtor for not making this clear in his listing and wasting my time, but he brushed it off like it's normal.

Then subtract out the construction costs, holding/soft costs, developer profit and your profit, and that's what he'd pay.

Bill Gulley - Painting with a very broad brush again, aren't we Bill.

I'm a wholesaler not a rehabber so have no credible opinion but I do have a buyer that after considering everything including soft costs and a 5% misc expense factor is content with the numbers showing a $25-35k profit.

If for some reason that is not agreeable with your tenants, then you are stuck relying on shelf liner.A few other options are: 1) let the process take its course and know that you will have issues to deal with in a few years, although these are relatively durable products assuming proper use and damage control 2) try to water proof them with a fast drying brush on lacquer product or an aerosol product (several thin coats)....never done it but don't see why it couldn't work or 3) after step 1 is complete and it has been a few years, you can sand down the bubbled up cabinet bottoms where wet plates and cups were set and put new 1/4' hardi-board????

Think outside the box and brush up on your sales skills instead.

Brush the dust off, spray with 100% ammonia and rinse with a hose, air dry.

Is that a "soft" pull or a "hard" pull?
