We could buy all high end stuff in, new roof, fix the landscaping, nice trim and crown molding, nice stainless kitchen, new windows, new drywall throughout, etc. 

Hey here's a question I've had about the Hudson Valley that is crucial to my investment world:  I guess it's more of a question about NYS in general:  How is the tenant/ landlord law in NYS and or Ulster Valley, POK?  I

The wood trim, crown molding, window frames and baseboards all are original and in good shape.  

Tray ceilings with crown molding and ceiling fan in the living room.

I'm trying to be conservative but I understand that until you have a lot of experience it's hard to be 100% accurate with estimates.I figure for a new roof, changing out vinyl siding for cement siding, redo the landscaping, new kitchen, bathrooms, floors, walls, paint, electric and plumbing plus some finishes like crown molding and some wainscoting in certain areas were looking at somewhere in the realm of 60k for a ~2000 sqft home.

@Brent McAlee The project is 15 units with high end furnishings like granite, stainless and upgrades to crown moldings and trim.The 20 percent profit for GC involvement on top of the site manager, subs labor and materials seemed a bit high, but not sure.Thanks,William

Owner informed me that the yard isn't in the best shape (yellow grass), crown molding needs to be put up, and interior painting needs to be done.

Crown Heights, Greenpoint, Fort Greene, Red Hook, and you should look at SUNNYSIDE (I think It's Queens but that's on the up and up esp with the new huge WeWork coming)

At the top, create a sort of capital, with a simple crown molding that extends slightly past the architrave.

And the owner attempting to replace the kitchen counter top.We want to stain the wood floors (living and dining room and stairs), add crown molding, replace flooring (kitchen and family room), and redo the master bathroom to start (approx $14K quoted from the contractor).We're now getting cold feet.
