He learned to lay tile, and does a nice job with wood flooring, while we have hired that work out.

I prefer hardwood and tile depending on the room.Stains or excessive grease/grime is another matter.

Then you know you can't go above such and so price, and you can't do a fire burn house on your first deal, but ugly green carpet and tile is just right...that kind of thing. 

2 weeksThat's from the movie Money Pit - you will not get an answer to your question that will encompass every flip, it all depends on what you do and how much you do, I'm a General Contractor and i can give you at least 20 different prices for the same project -  lets say, a bathroom ( most common reno ) -size of bath -  what tub, (steel, cast iron, fiberglass) - or is the bath just a shower, (fiberglass, ceramic tile, marble, are there accent pieces ?)

The analysis is based on getting just under a 20% discount off list or $120K.The property currently only has 1 tentant and will need about $4000 per unit to paint, update the kitchen and re-tile the bathrooms.

So I am stripping linoleum tile adhesive off of beautiful wood floors (yeah people are stupid) getting my rental property ready to rent and listening to the latest BP podcast on creative financing and got an idea and would like some ideas on structuring this deal.So awhile ago I was looking at a beautiful old house right on a main street across from a park, 3/1 with a 2 car detached originally listed at 109 k.

Other things are: white fabric ductwork tape, vct tiles (9x9), mastic for the tiles, vermiculite insulation to name a few. 

The most common places to find black mold is in system drains, within carpets, walls, paper, and ceiling tiles.

We are looking into how to reduce the sound transmission between floors.The ceiling had been furred down with 1x3s had a 12x12 ceiling tile installed over it.

Needs new kitchen, bathrooms, tile flooring throughout, paint, light/fan fixtures, HVAC unit.
