I know I fund the deals and pay for the rehab . my clients put on brand new roofs  new panels all new wiring new plumbing windows siding cabinets etc etc..

But it's a 3/2 and I think I could rent it for $1000-1200, has a lot of NEW things already in it (AC/heating, kitchen cabinets, appliances, flooring) but bedrooms need to be finished remodeling. 

Most investors think just because they ordered cabinets, flooring, vanities, and drywall that's all we need as contractors to get "your" job done.

A really nice home with some extra touches (a little granite, better flooring, nicer paint job, nicer cabinets, etc.) compared to the area will make potential tenants fall in love with the place.  2) Tenants that bring or can swing their own appliances are more financially stable (or just stable in general, ha!)

Wood Floors not sealed, tile not properly installed and grouted, cheap flat paint that the tenants can't wipe finger prints or food splashes off, countertops not caulked so water gets behind causing water damages, the cabinets were painted over not replaced the list goes on and on.

Replaced both toilets with brand new ones, replaced the 2 car- garage door with a brand new one, had all the walls freshly painted, put brand new baseboards in, and had the kitchen cabinets painted as well.

In that story the bank president looks through a file cabinet to find the file.

You still have flooring, cabinets, bathrooms, plumbing, insulation, paint, etc, so all that cost remains the same it would seem. 

I would like to install all wood cabinets as this house will hopefully sell in the low $200K's after renovation. 

We added some instant value to this one, changing fixtures, adding accent walls, and altering kitchen cabinets.
