This home you need to re-carpet the homes in several rooms I doubt it costs you just $1500. 

When we rehabbed his studio the carpet install guys insisted we needed a hazmat cleanup team & literally walked off the job.We got the place & within 30 months (& after a LOT of work & some structural redesign) we got the property approved as a legal 6-plex & the rents are currently $4900/month.

Example- if a tenant ruins (badly stains) a carpet that is still good but a few years old, you can’t just charge them full replacement cost.

At a recent turnover, I got 3 rooms of carpet cleaned for $24. 4 hours of deep cleaning from 2 cleaners for $60 and HVAC ducts and returns deep cleaned for $170.

@Cody Furman nothing works well with a subfloor with a slight give...except maybe carpet.

At the apartment complex where I worked, we would hire painters, carpet cleaners, etc. on a large scale.

We completely transformed the closed off, carpet everywhere home into a home we would want to live in (and we did for a few months!).

Upgrades will include new solid surface countertop, cabinets, upgraded laminate flooring, trim, and carpet in the bedrooms.  

Only some of them - like carpets and appliances - qualify.

Standard laminate is "fine", just like carpet is "fine".
