I've always been a full-rehab guy, never done a wholetail deal..but this came across my desk over the past few days: Purchase price: $98,500Retail value (in as-is condition): $125,000ARV with medium rehab (base finishes): $140,000I'm thinking I'll close, do about $1k in basic make ready repairs and put back on the market targeting the $125K price point and call it a day.  

Here's what the house looked like on May 1: And here is what it looks like now, after granite, flooring, paint (walls, trim, ceilings, garage), appliances, light fixtures, and dozens of other small-to-medium fixes.

I hope you use this medium to express your concerns re the above topics in your own post and thread.

It seems like a safe bet to me that inflation will stay where it is or increase in the medium term or long run.  

The US Dollar as reserve currency is used to make trade easier between countries that want the medium of trade between nations to be stable.

If so, what medium are you using to poll the tenant?

Which is basically mixed use medium density residential and commercial.

If it were me, I'd go with something more rustic for the mantle, the width of the fireplace.

Hi Mike, I've done a few houses with slab cracks and the general rule of thumb is that if the width of the crack isn't wider that a quarter, there is nothing to worry about.

You will hardly ever find a decent single dwelling property for less than 300k (generally speaking) and even apartments/duplex/townhouse units go for up to 300k (medium standard).
