A contractor I would expect to pay maybe a hundred bucks, assuming you're asking him to ballpark the numbers and not write up a full blown quote.if you see a contractor make sure it is someone who is used to doing rehab s for investors, otherwise the renovation quotes potentially can come in at almost double... for example it is not unusual for a contractor to charge $4000 for a furnace that rehabbers typically spend 2000 for.

The $50k market is very unusual.

It is not unusual to go 5k over budget and sell for 5k less thsn expected.

If you're uncertain as to how to get things going the staff of this site will gladly assist.  

My 1st year with those sky high interest rates, I only sold 1 house and made $4k. every year my income about doubled except my last year I tripled the year before hitting the $360k but it was an unusual tax driven year. 

It also doesn't seem like a good idea, since you are putting your home on the line in an attempt to make money.Chasing quick appreciation and being fully leveraged puts you in a situation where things can go badly very quickly.It isn't unusual for transaction/holding costs to end up being 10% of the sale price. 

While I have tapped into many forums to find out exactly how to structure a subject to deal from beginning to end, I am still uncertain of all the details.

These can be difficult to find, and more difficult to price as it is uncertain how long it will take to find, in this case the best you will prob get is a hourly rate.

That's pretty unusual to me, but nothing too high that I noticed.

There are other aspects to determine values, like buying a car previously owned by some celebrity for example, or antique and collector valuations, but these unusual valuations apply to unique assets, not just any old trailer.There are aspects of "market value" in that legal definition of a buyer and seller having equal or similar knowledge, each dealing in good faith.
