In addition, the building code might also require an egress window even if you have the other doors.The easiest thing to do right away, is make sure your parking is rented a top dollar.

The Windows seemed like they may have been updated at one point, but most likely they would need to be updated if the rest of the home is getting fully rehabbed.

You could budget 300k and still be at the 1% rule, but replacing windows alone would be 100k assuming they could all be done from the inside-not all that likely.

@Ryan Proffit Its just about break even right now to be honest (it was a beast before the refi), but I am very conservative with my numbers, for example I just installed two new boilers and new kitchens, appliances, gutters, windows but I'm still accounting for 10% cap ex.

What I found was that the thieves cam in through a window and out the door. 

Clarification: there are windows in the living room, kitchen and bathroom.

*fingers crossed*So I've been doing A LOT of  online window shopping and my search brought me to an auction property that needed a bit of work.

It’s a uethIcal business practice to jack people around and it’s a reason why today a handshake is worthless and courtesy is tossed out the window .

so I drove to the property, there explained everything. you can see the sky through the roof, half of house was gone, the windows were boarded up..... it was in a tiny neighborhood, I mean there are only 7 houses in the neigh hood, off a main street.

New roof and windows needed along with some minor foundation repairs.
