I had to abandon a vacation and come here to oversee this and clean up her mess. 

The renovation is significant (flooring, counters, heating, upgrading the bathrooms, etc.), but not a complete remodel (not adding or expanding structures).

Louis, MO.I have a question that I was hoping the BP community could help with: I was wondering if anybody could point me in the direction of a nice, clean, and easy to use accounting spreadsheet template (or something of that nature) for real estate investing book-keeping?

It takes 3-5 days where I am for a commitment to come back, assuming it is clean, I do the following three things:Take the original contract, cut a tiny strip of paper and scotch tape it over the price and make a copy.

Hi,I have a turnover for a property in Memphis TN, and there's a bit of extra work that needs to be done in addition to standard wear and tear, some bedroom doors need to be replaced, blinds, patching, painting, some floor tiles etc....I got an estimate, and I know everything is costing more these days but it feels a bit aggressive. 

Refund the cleaning fee. 

I'm having a hard time finding contractors who can handle the framing portion of the project (flooring joists, laying subfloor, walls, roofing system) who aren't also general contractors.

I have seen a lot of floor plans that are actually very nice and form the inside you cannot even tell its a MFH!

Keep in mind that the home will likely need thorough cleaning and repairs may be extensive.Ask about short salesIf a homeowner needs or wants to sell a home that isn’t worth what they owe on it, the lender may consider a short sale.

We've had 2 units rented long-term at our MTR rate which seems like a homerun to us because we have no vacancy, cleanings, turns, etc.
