I don't mind hanging dry wall and the demo but Im not going to get myself electricuted!

I see what you are saying but unless they mandate everyone to demo their homes it just won't be done.

I just received an email notifying me that the city is going to demo the property because it is hazardous.

Granted, that accounts for demo of the existing structure, but it does not account for the cost of the land which is typically a little more than demo costs.

First demo and framing.

yes was planning on it. but upon further thinking. i believe i may demo and sale the land. thank you for your interest.

Would you be willing to pay me the demo costs to take the house off your hands?

Karen - A quick calculation that i have seen work multiple times is this (assuming that demo, construction costs and sales prices are not exotic or out of line):If your total sales revenue is 5-6x your land cost, you probably have a deal worth taking a hard look at.

First thing I would do is tent off bathrooms with tubs an showers and demo surrounds and floors, bag it all up and get it out.

Remove all carpet (assuming you will want to replace) and demo/pull any other items you plan to replace.
