Plumbing - Must be functional with no damage or leaks.Hot water - Must be functional.Electrical - All receptacles must function normally, GFCI receptacles required in kitchen and baths, no exposed wiring.HVAC - AC is not required, but if ductwork is present, then AC must be functional.

We incorporated stylish designer finishes and fun elements like a flip-out serve window from the kitchen to the deck.

It's a two-story duplex and one of the corners (kitchen floor) is settling a couple of inches.

My recommendation is to either just give a ballpark--30K-40K rehab or to skip the rehab number altogether and instead list the items that need repair (Ex: kitchen needs to be updated, carpet in bedrooms needs to be replaced, hot water heater needs to be replaced, half bathroom needs to be updated etc) and provide lots of photos of course and that should be enough for an investor to make their own determinations about rehab costs.

Each bedroom, each bathroom, living room, dining room, kitchen, walls, pots and pans and glasses and dishes and sheets and towels and blankets and decorative stuff and pictures and perhaps exterior stuff like patio furniture.

I used it on this kitchen that had your standard golden oak cabinets (i can't find my before pics right now).

(Both had several failed closes due to property conditions.)The VA one took 4 weeks before they came back @ our price (middle of winter school taxes due & the kitchens in both units had been gutted to the studs) but the Texas bank agreed to a verbal over the phone as we had our potential buyer walking through it with his dad.Also estate sales with out of state heirs.

But it just seems to work that way. 3) New appliances - black 4) When flooring is needed: Medium grade frieze for carpet in living areas, ceramic in kitchens and bathrooms although sometimes I do laminate in kitchen depending on the height/surface in connecting rooms.5) Replace countertops if dated or damaged.6) Paint all walls - but only paint ceiling if really bad.7) Certifiy HVAC8) Replace kitchen faucet but not bathroom unless really bad.9) An upgraded ceiling fan in living room and master bedroom.Thats typically my list and then I do what most of the others have mentioned above.

About this time the other tenant walks out of the kitchen with a headless, skinned carcass of a squirrel.Knowing that it would not be an odd question considering the extremely small country bumpkin town, I asked if he shot it out of one of the trees on the property.

Painted all the trim in the unit I am rehabbing, painted two bathrooms, and a kitchen.
