Disclaimer: I am brand new and have never invested before.

They sometimes have top brands as returns under the counter at rock bottom clearance prices (inside secret:)) Yes, go with a soft grey as it's more neutral, opens  up the space and it's not the regular boring beige.Quartz is harder than granite,  however Quartz can burn if a  hot pot is left on it too long:)Countertops: request quotes on granite, quartz and laminate, before making a final decision.If you have more questions, let me know.MB

I am also brand new to the Houston REI game and BP!

I sent him a reply advising him that I am brand new to REI, mentioned BiggerPockets and the reason for my post.

@Mike HibbsYes I would get my cash out if available to be ready for another project Just one other issue I have with this rent to own deal is if they do back out and you get their $5000 deposit your house is now not brand new.  

Try selling a similar size home that was built in the 50s and has never been remodeled compared to a brand-new home.  

I am brand new to BP and REI and my plan is to start wholesaling in San Diego with the intent to gain experience and generate capital so that I can eventually fix and flip, as well as buy and hold. 

The home is a "full renovation" - brand new electrical, new plumbing, new roof etc.

They can take n the repairs at that point.Regardless of price, real estate options have a brand new face in '16, doing business as before is out of the question, a 1,000 past deals is irrelevant under new requirements.

Well that is a lot of weight so I borrowed my friends large brand new dump trailer set up to haul over 15,000 pounds of weight.
