To finish up-The buyer is having sewage back up from the pipe somewhere and the plumber that came out "jetted" the pipe and found several pieces of cast iron pipe that was breaking off.

Significant amounts of contaminants or foreign material such as drywall texture or paint were found in panel(s) #A.

I actually called Citi Mortgage this morning too and was told that they will only do #5 - #10 if it is a primary residence, not an investment property. ...That sounds SO retarded - like anybody (other than some movie star / jet setter) would need to live in properties 5 through 10 ...When you talk to them use the idea I'm pointing out, just don't word it as harshly!

I recently gutted an entire house which included new drywall, texture, paint, doors, windows, cabinets, granite counter tops, vanities, flooring, fixtures, and appliances as well as restructuring an exterior wall with two sliding glass doors which was all done for $34K.If this is a high-end property, then I believe your estimate may be correct.

You know the ones with the jet inside the tank.

Like others said, almost as much time as the whole room.The most frustrating in this house was actually the living room: It had a swirly texture to it.

For instance, it would pay to have new sheetrock hung, but not taping, finishing, texturing or painting.

I started out in the architectural field and moved over to interiors to roll up my shirt sleeves and play with texture and color (my two most favorite things next to bourbon and pork belly).

I accepted his answer and waited close to another week to check again and saw that the only difference was the ceiling was textured.  

When you hang new drywall you still have to cover seams between the sheets and texture the wall.
