These are the big-ticket items that can destroy the budget. otherwise, I know what finishes I want to use so I can estimate the square footage based off where the materials would go.

We have lesser finishes, but if we refaced the cabinets (since it's cheaper than replacing, and more durable than painting) and swapped the countertops (laminate) we could likely demand more rent, especially since it's a top-floor unit with vaulted ceilings, a huge master, and no shared walls. 

The web site says http://fortworthtexas.gov/neighborhoods/NEZ/Promote housing, economic development and quality services in Fort Worth central city.So what does this really mean for those of us who have rentals in the area? 

Every once in awhile I scan the forums to see what people are talking about and I scan zillow and other websites for deals.

Podcasts, websites, you get the idea.

If your target didnt die when you shot them you go to the ER and finish the job . 

Now I'm almost to the finish line!

The 2nd picture is an example of our generic finished units and this particular project with the LifeProof flooring has to be a higher quality to hit our underwriting rents. 

I have found a 2-1 property listed at 160k in great shape with an unfinished basement, and comps of 4-2 with the same square footage of the finished house have sold for 200k-220k in that area.
