When a Minnesota home remodeler decided to plunk down $10,100 for a fixer-upper to rehab, he just assumed it was a no-lose investment.

the property I am looking at to get it under contract is advertised for $395,000It need about $7000 to $9000 in remodeling.

Divide the building with a wall, front half cabana bar, put a side door in to the back, 5' wide, from the door you'd have a vanity, then toilet then shower, last 3 feet a full length sauna. toilet, Outside on the back wall put a rack and cabinet for pool equipment and chemicals.

And my 2008 purchase was over $1,000 sf and my bath remodel (only sink moved and new spot backed up to the kitchen sink) added another $463 sf for the bathroom area!

Last year there was a leak in the toilet that required a plumber to yank the toilet up and jack hammer the concrete beneath to level the toilet.

Mentioned a leaky bathroom faucet, toilet flap needs replaced and wants a ceiling fan (very easy.)Then we offered the 3 and 4 year tenants to renew (staggered in OCT and NOV with a 25$ increase this year and thanked them for their long term tenancy and how well they take care of their units.Instead of offering rent hike to last we just terminated the lease 1 SEP so we can move in and satisfy loan requiremnet.

I own a construction company that does residential and commercial building and remodeling.

They are not remodeling contractors.)Will you run dehumidifiers?

Criagslist helps alot with rental side of the business but zero responses on these remodeled houses.

BTW - for painting in KC, I would recommend Larry Nichols of LT Custom Painting and Remodeling.
