I have a way of getting a flood of potential buyers on the phone and opening their wallet (90% want rent to own or need credit help).

My last one (3 bdrm, 1 bath, 2 car SF house) ran me about 16k for everything (i.e. new flooring, drywall repair, scraping popcorn ceilings off and re-texturing, new ceiling fan, new fridge, landscaping, all new interior & exterior paint, some new electrical, foundation repair, termite treatment, complete gut & remodel of bathroom, two new doors and all new door hardware through the house, new water heater, etc etc etc).

If that part of the house is in such bad shape i bet it needs new furnace water heater, definitely new paint, pressure wash the siding, New windows, doors, hardware refinish the floors assuming the hard wood is in good condition.

KISS, paint it over, put new hardware if need be but don't dare think about a remodel, because after one bad party, you will regret you ever remodeled. 5.

What about the stair banisters, and the special hardware to install it.  

My advice, don't go unless you leave your wallet at home.

I recently went to a similar free seminar, but was already armed with the knowledge that the REAL purpose of the seminar was to get their hooks into my wallet by promising secret valuable information that would only become available at their next NON-free Seminar.

It will cost about $15K including disposing of the asbestos shingles on the exterior of the house- 11k to demo, 4k to take off and dispose of the asbestos shingles.There isn't much that could be salvaged from my house other than some doors and a bit of hardware.

Smaller military requires less hardware.  

I even started to pull out my wallet to make my purchase lol.
