It's a 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom cape cod.

Any contractors experts in bathrooms that might be able to help?

Not vented, and for a house with 3 full bathrooms and a kitchen there is only one visible pipe vent and whatsmore is that it’s on the opposite side of the house from all the bathrooms.He even shows me where there is a tear in the main power line coming in from the street with bare wire exposed.The plumber also shared with us that any good GC worth their salt will file their own permits for the work they do with the State.This house had no permits which leads me to believe the seller hired some very shady contractors.Ok so at this point I’m pretty much done with the seller.My RE agent is trying to save the sale by continuing to tell me to get an Inspector (for $400) and have them make up a list of all the problems to negotiate with the seller over.I thought I was very courteous and clear when I said “If the seller will pull permits and get the house up to code we can move forward”.The RE agent contacted the seller and his response was “You can get the permits on your own after you buy the house, but I won’t get any permits”.And that’s when we walked away.Good experience and well worth the $100 we paid the plumber I thought.We also stopped talking to that Real Estate company after that.From this experience I have absolutely no faith or see any reason to hire an Inspector.

Bathroom too should be renovated and I believe that a second bath could could be squeezed between bedrooms 2 & 3.

So here's what we ended up doing- The before and after pics will help paint a better picture of the transformation:Property: 155k  and 1600 sqft. in Washington County, OregonFinancing: Hard Money (estd. interest only monthly payments of 1.6k)Fix-up Budget Estimate 23k (before purchase - our plan was to do a lot of the rehab ourselves and save money): Roof-16k, Painting (Interior+Exterior)-1k, Electrical-1.5k, Flooring (Carpeting+Refinish Hardwood Flooring)-1k, Bathroom-0.5k, Misc. 

friend with wife and young daughter mentioned their landlord is knocking down shower and bathroom walls, and they just had to shower and use the bathroom in backyar. said landlord refused to provide even a local motel room to go and use the bathroom/shower at.friend seems irate enough to be especially upset that has 2 yr lease and 'feels' landlord/owner's actions are in breach of it. also mentioned in ripping out walls they and some framing are covered in 'black slimy looking stuff' and the repairmen did not cover any of his furniture and it may be contaminated (with dust, debris, spores?)

@Joe T.A few years ago, we had a young tenant - one of our first turnovers - who moved into one of our units and her parents (mother mostly) had a shopping list of similar upgrades they thought would be appropriate (countertops, cabinets, bathroom vanity {colour was wrong}, etc.) - there was nothing functionally wrong with anything in the apartment, it was just not level of finish they had at home. 

He showed me a bathroom down the hall which would be mine and a kitchenette down a half flight of stairs that would be primarily mine. 

Which sinks to choose for a bathroom.

The kitchen, bathroom & windows were updated back in 2007 when first purchased.Rented for $900I know this sounds simple but I looked up comps & similar style homes sold on average for $30k.
