Three didn't return my call and one is an elderly man who wants to unload at least one of his properties.

Has anyone found the prices to be good at Lumber Liquidators?

Turns out he has two properties that he was looking to unload, both of these properties are historic homes in need of repairs one more than the other.

Lumber and other material costs have gone up and up (lets not even talk about plywood right now) and labor costs have continued to trend up, as we all know what high demand does to the cost of anything.Again, assuming the work wasn't shoddy and you bothered to have it inspected and have already passed your final, I wouldn't worry too much about that cost for that amount of work. $30k goes REALLY quickly these days.

However, the property is by far the nicest on the block, and I worry that it will be difficult to unload the property and make my money back when it comes time to sell.Any advice?

So location-wise, you shouldn't have a problem unloading deals to investors (add me to your buyers' list, I represent a wide variety of investors) in most any area of the city.

Another great thing about this scenario is that my father is lucky enough to be a manager of a lumber business, and it's easily quite possible that he can get most materials for less than the normal cost, so that could widen the profit margin as well.Thank you!

If so, be sure to perform solid due diligence on all of them, and understand why the seller is looking to unload this unit.

Just recently, because of all the hurricanes and I am assuming the shortage of lumber, one of my estimates for an add a level that I am doing went up 8k over a week because of this...

I'm wondering if I just unload it and save myself the headache and stress, or get it done to add to my portfolio?
