Hi BP fam,I'm helping a buddy install laminate hardwood flooring and we have a pretty good start, but have an abnormally-shaped layout in the house (working from one end of a trailer to another) and our tiles aren't quite fitting the way we'd like.

I can do 5 "Subject To's" in 5 months and make $100,000 without contractors, zoning, delays, carrying costs, banks , weather delays, decisions on paint colors, decisions on tile for the upstairs spare bathroom, etc, etc, etc.

For the vacation rentals, I usually put in higher quality upgrades, wood floors, tile bathrooms, crown molding, treated ceilings and quality blinds. 

greetings everyone, i'm new here and needing some advice. so im thinking about buying another house. the plan i have in my head is to buy a fixer upper with cash (to try to get lowest possible purchase price) and to get a heloc from it to use on repairs. the plan is to move into it once renovated and rent out my current home. as far as repairs im only interested in fixing up big ticket things.. stuff like fixtures, paint, drywall and tile work i can do on my own and figured i can do on my own time to finish the house since i'll be living in it. and if things go according to plan..i'll rent/sell that  house and do it again once its complete ..has anybody done something similar to this?

I would, however, want to include coverage for building materials such as tile, which would be lying around during the construction process.

You can find a tile for $1/ft that will look decent, especially if you go with a larger tile (not 4").  

All of our homes are renovated at the front end (generally we buy wrecks and rehab them, but there are exceptions) and have a baseline of amenities - central h&a, dishwasher, no carpeting (hardwood, laminate or tile).

Filing it with a tile company or attorney will cloud the title if the seller or another wholesaler tries to go around you.

How to hold tile: tenant in common, joint tenants, partners?

New cabinets, new counters, new tile on the walls in the bathrooms and around the showers.
