James Wise and Tom Ott definitely know the area so listen to them. 

@James Syed - I was thinking about targeting retirees as well.  

Got the cabinets on sale at Home Depot (I usually use Kitchen Cabinet Kings but I couldn't pass on the 30% off on the cheapest Home Depot cabinets).

Cool, that looks like my James Bond 007 Briefcase I had when I was 10 year old.

@Casey Hildreth and @James Rodgers I will let yall know how it goes!

@James Canoy besides the stuff mentioned, we did about 40% of the floors, tons and tons of paint, some trim work, gutted and redid one bathroom and kitchen, replaced all the appliances, two water heaters, built a small shed for an oil tank, some capping on the roof, just a few spots for wall repairs, poured a walkway, and redid a lot of the plumbing lines (lots of leaks).
