If the home is 100 yrs old, I'm assuming it's a definite gut which is going to require new plumbing, electrical, heating, cosmetics.I spent about $140K reno on my multi family in the heights on NY ave and there were massive problems with it but it was a gut to 3 units & adding 2 bathrooms, 3 brand new kitchens 4 bathroom reno in total, all new flooring, sheetrock , insulation, framing, doors, electrical, plumbing, paint, parts of roof etc.

The article below sheds light on how DSCRs come into play with the BRRRR method.

We have done tons of non-occupied flips too (fast method).

Are you using the BRRRR method or buying turnkey?

You can do both, not an either or, but focus on the one you like the mostRE and CRE are great if done carefully and methodically and with patience, but so is picking individual stocks. 

Quote from @Arun Maheshwari: Hi,Does the bank owned foreclosure property allows to put Inspection contingency for big issues like plumbing, eletricity etc.ThanksIf it is bank owned and the foreclosure has taken place - possibly but they would make you responsible to turn on power and water and turn it back off.

We focus on CapEX before beauty. as a realtor we understand selling or renting homes you have to make the home function, Roofing, windows, electrical and plumbing. after we address these we focused on beautify making sure the upgrades match the area and is forward thinking with color scheme, flooring, and flow.

Check w/ the City / County to see what the permitting process is, and what if anything you would have to do regarding plumbing / electrical.

Instead, there should be dollar amounts assigned to specific events, i.e. demolition complete with full haul off, floors broom cleaned, no nails left in studs or subfloors $1,500.Plumbing rough in complete and rough in inspection passed: $4000Final plumbing completed $5000I am clearly making up dollar amounts, but look for these types of bids on large projects.  

As you know there is no equity in this method, BUT it gives you money to go purchase that equity.
