To get that to that code minimum level is not too hard with carpet, but much harder with tile or wood floors due to the impact noise. 

why would you have anything but tiles in Florida?

You can do just fine getting 0.6 or 0.7% rent to purchase price in Las Vegas because…No state income tax, very low property tax, low insurance rates, stucco siding and tile roofs than last 50+ years, no maintenance landscaping, no tornadoes, hail or snowstorms, properties are considered old here at 20-30 years, not 100 like some areas. 

Or what tiles will go best with what cabinets or counter tops?

.- The bathroom shower has some tiles on the ceiling that are falling, obviously a leak for the bathroom on the second floor.

.- $8,000.00 2) Remove and replace Bathroom (new tub or shower, new vanities and toilet, ceramic tile, paint, bath accessories). - $4,000.00 3) Frame and finish basement - $6,000.00 (with full second bath included will run about $10,000.)4) Painting a property of this size including the finished basement - $2,500.005) Remove and replace all doors (about 10 in this property) with 6 panel hollow doors - $15,000.006) Install HVAC to include Furnace, condenser and ductwork - $7,500 (If the ductwork is already in place we can have a 2.5 ton furnace and condenser installed for $4,000.00(ductwork is the most consuming and labor intensive part of installing a HVAC system)7) Install carpet on second floor(This includes all three bedrooms, hallway and stairs) and basement $2,300.008) Refinish hardwood floor and new color of the stain of for the living room and dining room - $ 900.009) Replace windows with all new energy efficient vinyl windows - $3,000.00I think that's all of the big stuff.

I am in need of a semi-budget friendly tile installer in the Lexington, KY area for a couple of our flips after ours has gone MIA.

Just finished an inspection on a triplex, all looks good for the most part, but the bathrooms need updating, mainly all the tile.

If you're handy and granite slab is beyond your price point granite tile is a good DIY.

Updates would include paint, flooring, ceiling tiles (I still need to see whats up there behind this false ceiling).
