Joel Owens Bought an office. Replace hardwoods first or carpet?
20 August 2015 | 1 reply
Debating between refinishing what is there of just buy new to put down for less time and have the wider plank look.Didn't know to do hardwood first and then put sheet down to protect when the carpet people come in or do new carpet and then put hardwood down after that is upfront.If I put carpet first I was thinking when they re-stain hardwood it might get some on the new carpet versus the old I wouldn't care as it is being ripped up anyways.I will probably go for plush carpet with a nice thick pad.

Kevin Harrison Tenant broke lease and left a mess. What recourse do i have?
8 July 2015 | 9 replies
Once he moved out though I found that while no major damage had been done a lot of small things were messed up.there is large stain (looking like dog diarrhea that had been dragged across the carpet) in the living room, that I don't think is going to come out with just a cleaning, but we are trying that too.chipped the granite counter top (no idea how or if its even worth it to fix)a dog that we didn't not know they had scratched up the back door (sanded and painted) and our hard wood entryway (going to need to be sanded and refinished)also a myriad of scuffs, holes, stains on many of the walls.did not clean upon move out which is specified in the leaseI manage from afar and getting there to do it myself is not cost efficient, and I am pretty pissed with my management company and told them so but that a whole other story.

Brian Huber Does the 70% rule make sense on lower priced houses?

For example, I'm looking at a house on Realtor.com in Charlotte, NC for $27,900 that probably needs the following:New roof - $10Knew trim - $1Knew gutters - $1K8 new windows - $3000Wood floors refinished - $1KRehabbed kitchen and its floor - $6KJust some very basic numbers, I'm looking at $22K in rehab costs, and this is on the low side, assuming that this work isn't as expensive in Charlotte AND the replacements are not high end materials.The comps are scarce but seem to range from $45-55K, so let's call it $50.So with the 70%, I'd offer:70% of $50K is $35K -$22K rehab costs-$1000 carrying costs-$3500 Commission fees & taxes upon sale = $8500 MAOSo this is pretty far from the initial asking price.
