The foundation work, the exodus of so many former tenants, the appraiser visit, and the inquiries about Airbnb from strangers in the back parking lot are all signs that this apartment house is changing into a kind of hotel.

Is the foundation splitting?

What website is the most accurate for ESTIMATING building costs from foundation to finish?

This house needs a new septic system, foundation, siding, roof, and there are mice in the walls despite all the poison I've put out, etc. etc.  

That isn't accounting any $ in the budget if there is any issue with foundation, roof, HVAC, exterior paint/siding replacement, or anything else.If you were to buy at a purchase price of $95,000, after back end realtor commissions and closing costs you might make a $2,000-$3,000.

Reading this is like pouring foundations before building a house.

I paid $20k and had to replace everything except the well, foundation, septic tank (but did replace the leach field), wiring, and most of the framing.  

That price included pumping, chemically treating, and ultimately collapsing the septic tank, directional boring 3/4 of the way around the house (.39 acre lot), two cleanouts installed, and he even removed a damaged cast iron stack pipe which had cracked in my foundation and updated it to PVC at no charge.I gave the overpriced $4,000 water equipment to a friend who had suffered from hard water and haven't had an issue with my new city water/sewer setup yet.Contact me if you'd like to chat further.

The foundation of the house is solid, but it looks like the garage floor was attached to the outside of the foundation or poured at a different time, because it sank.  

What if I still have my inspection contingency in my highest and best, and they sent me the seller addendum and I sent an inspector and he figured a foundation problem, would it still be bad business if I did not sign the seller addendum?
