I spent a lot of time going through many of the resources BP and others offer, but found that actually getting into the property was hands down the best way to cement my knowledge.

Electrical is a bit easier to estimate conditions, but i heard some guys even put cement in pipes.

Durning that big rain storm in December the water rose from underneath the cement floor and started to flood the boiler.

The deck, carport, cement pouring, sod/landscaping, etc. etc. will bring it up to $440k total investment.

Remove the drywall and replace it with cement board.

This issue would be whether or not the type of work needed a lot of water (cement, soil irrigation, etc). 

4 inch hardening cement $7,000.00 11.

Then denied Section 8 because there was older "cement paint" on the driveway that had partially been stripped away.

I know the money directly adds to my local economy, feeds construction workers, even Realtors, pays the bills and provides a living for others, from the dentist to the driver of the garbage truck.

We get bags of concrete, cement, sand, etc for $1 (any size or brand) if it has a hole in the bag.
