We do the demo and fill the dumpster.

Just demo it and turn it into a christmas tree farm!

The value would be roughly the value of the land, less the cost to demo the "improvements" and mitigate any environmental damage.

I'm planning on Re-tiling, Granite Counters, Bead Board, and New Fixtures...Just curious what others are budgeting for demo and bath remodel.Also curious if HUD has a minimum % of list in order to counter or accept..

I haven't finishing demoing the remaining cabinets, but you should be able to get the idea.

As he stated, you may not want to hear that, but often, this example holds true with many items related to rehabbing.Here is one that I have done several times in the past that does work out with the math.Demo floor tile:Typically, my installers here will charge $.75 to $1 per sq. ft for the demo and removal of the tile.I have been able to demo 300 sq. ft of tile (inlcuding time to dump in container) in approx 2 hours (I have the right power tool) and since I order and pay for the dumpster already, I just wheel it out and toss it in the dumpster.

There are some items you can have multiple contractors doing their thing at the same time. i.e. the roofer can be working while demo is going on inside... the bathroom tile work can be done at the same time your kitchen cabinets are being installed etc.

Over the years, we've jumped on several software demo calls, but nothing could match what we've built in SF. 

True, the demo in LA tends to be much hipper, but a high-end market is still MUCH more educated and demanding of good design, no matter the location.

The only known was that when you finished demo you would have more work than you thought when you started.
