I generally use this detergent to clean oil spots on the driveway, not to use it to clean any linens or towels.

I was also going to call estate sale, estate clean-out and debt consolidators.

Things like not cleaning up fully after working, or not securing wiring fully are things why I say quality is not the best it can be. 

That said, simple rehab projects if done full time and correctly should expect to have about a week per $10,000 of budget plus an additional week or 2 for clean up, market ready items, misc.

If there are any areas of walls that need dings and dens fixed, I would be inclined to mark them on the wall and describe them in the scope.Make sure to indicate very specificallythey are required to clean up after themselves and to not clean their tools in your finished sinks.

Almost a year later, he passed away, it took a month to find his children and they took almost a month to clean out the house.  

It is always better to have a clean LLC holding individual properties instead of co-mingling multiple assets in one.

I do love the versatility of subway tile, but don't like the idea of adding all those grout lines to clean.

Which is where we came in and made the offer at asking. 599k was a decent price. 590k would have been optimal but the seller was not budging on price because of comps. 2 reasons though he listed it "cheap". 1) The house needed TLC in terms of cleaning, painting, some flooring, landscaping, door hardware, the basics.
