The property is in South Africa/ Gauteng in the city of Pretoria, Mamelodi to be precise. 

I have never done that but will be as precise on my information.

One problem I see with that is that, in competitive markets such as mine, going too conservative rather than nailing down a very close cost budget could price you out of the chance of getting it, therefore, I do recommend to any wholesaler or rehabber to really learn how to get more detailed and more precise means to calculate a rehab so that you not only provide accurate info,but you avoid the unnecessary chance of pricing yourself out of the deal.

Had I known I would have taken the DU value, it was sad but survivable.Called SCCU and now we are gun shy, I've gotten precisely one bad appraisal in my life (above) but I'm too afraid to ask for a new clown to be sent out, I'm just taking the DU value. 

Your description of the process is precisely why I want to do it and always have.

My analogy wasn't trying to be precise, or something to be dissected from 100 different angles, it was trying to illustrate ONLY that one simple point: If you deal with it, it's not a big deal...
