I just returned from a rock 'n roll cruise on 12 February.

Hello @Luke B and welcome to BP!

If they will only take retail value then its time to move on to the next one.Cant get water from a rock.

This gut included new sheet-rock and floors too.

I have found that I can google band find a good repair man just as well as the next person!

Welcome from Round Rock!

Most contractors will know a painter or a sheet rock guy or a roofer they trust to get the job done right and for a reasonable rate.

It will always be market dependent as to what any organization can do, it is not something that can be replicated anywhere.I haven't read the entire thread, nor will I, nor have I said it can't be done, in the right market, obviously CA is a unique market, higher prices, higher foreclosures, more inventory, active markets make many things possible that can't be duplicated in other areas, good for you guys, but let's not speak of such business as if the same thing can be accomplished in Little Rock, AR or Boston, MA !

Hi Brad,It's in Seneca Rocks.  

Several days of tree work or one big crew with a chipper ($3000)New septic system $20,000 (I think this area is solid rock)Hard money plus holding cost. 15,000My thoughts on this property are as follows:offer $5000 as the cabin is a tear down with a Maximum offer of $7500Leave one wall in place and call it a remodel and bring this place ack to life as a small rental for grad students / retirees who are building their dream house and need a place to liveGet the deal set and wholesale it off to one of the many builders in the areaMy questions are:How do I price this thing?
