Painted 100% of the interior and exterior window trim, replaced the front door, added tile floors in the bathroom and kitchen, painted bathroom vanity and replaced all fixtures, put in new quartz countertops on original cabinets, all new light fixtures, door knobs and handles throughout.

This comes up in the construction world a lot...a Contractor frames a wall/installs cabinets/ adds a new roof/etc, and then the homeowner does not pay them.

Kitchen remodel with shaker cabinets and granite countertops was about 4K (pretty small approx 12 linear ft of top and bottom cabinets with sink/fixture cutouts.

Cabinet beds should hold up better. 

Also the house is completely gutted out, do I install the cabinets first or kitchen floor?

Our large 1 bedroom 1 bath & 2 bedroom 1 bath apartments have spacious living rooms with large picture windows, cozy kitchens with lots of cabinet space, dining areas, hall closets with plenty of additional space, bathrooms with vanity, tub/showers, wood floors and large bedrooms with wall-to-wall closet space.

A flipper will typically do all new cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, while a rental buyer may just change something out if it's really old or broken.

Even though I gutted the kitchen we are going to use corian and shaker cabinets that are wood color.

I always tell clients do basic updates line new cabinets, sink, stone counters, paint and this can get you a large rent increase plus hopefully some equity.For financing there is a 10% down option that gets you around the self sufficiency test via a local credit union or FHA is popular for the legal 2 units.
