A plus would be the ability to design rooms like kitchens and bathrooms with the program.

This is my second short sale, first one the bank accepted, so this is the first time I am in this situation.South Florida, single family 2 bed 1 bath home, in fair condition, everything works, no major work needed - but I haven't yet done an inspection, however home is dated back to the 60s, pink bathroom tiles, yellow kitchen counter, you know.First time short sale package submittal for this home, looking at the nearby sale, I say FMV is around 110K.I offered 100K cash. 45 days later bank (Chase) countered 126K.

The Kitchen also has tile and new cheap cabinets and counter tops.This would be my second real estate purchase and my first investment deal.So,Do experienced buy/holders avoid old houses like this?

It is newly painted on the exterior and interior, new carpets, hardwood floors down stairs, new bathroom fixtures, kitchen cabinets, two car garage.

These 3 inch tall tiles required 4 times as many cuts on the wet saw as a 12 inch tile would have and were a bit tedious to lay for a first timer like myself.All in all, we love the shower and I'm glad I know how to tile now.

  - the kitchen looks amazing!! 

Thank you for providing your experience.I have contacted a local investor who does rehab projects for flips, homeowners looking to sell, etc.Speaking with him, they do the full rehab from start to finish, paint outside, inside, kitchen, flooring, etc.

Im a small timer just getting started.

We are going to open two walls for kitchens, gut and rebuild one kitchen, gut and rebuild a bathroom, add a shower to a half bathroom, and finish a basement.

Kitchens: we use upgraded granite.6.
