Here's a link to a post I wrote about the project you might find interesting. http://activerain.com/blogsview/4869328/big-places-on-tiny-spaces--the-cubic-foot-vs-square-foot-really-counts

Just adjust your house to have an extra 2500 square ft and see what happens to your estimate!

I've been looking for a duplex/triplex to live in in the Bothell, WA area and rent out the other unit while in college.

I'm based near the Washington DC metropolitan area and would love to speak w/ someone else in the area who's familiar with the wholesaling aspect of real estate.( Also if you're in need of professional real estate photography just send a message haha ;) )Thanks and I look forward to perhaps meeting some of you!

If they are able to take a huge loss with someone else's money, then carry it forward for a decade or two to offset any income taxes they might owe, they could make a ton and go all the way to Washington.

I have never done a rehab that costly per square foot and I am typically shocked at the cost of my rehabs (always more than I expect).Are you planning to refinance it to pull out some/all of the $200K invested? 

Cameron I am a local VA Lender here in San Diego county shoot me a direct message and I will get you all squared away.

He called me about 7 months later and wanted to send me the money he owed because he hadn't give me full months notice, he had a job and was doing better,, I said Merry Christmas all was good and appreciated that he wanted to make it square,, he didn't know I rented the unit and thought I would have been out a months rent..even though my move out statement showed no balance..

Has anyone found the cost per square foot to rehab in Jacksonville, FL?

I have a question for chaining a  2-bedroom 2-bathroom 1300 square feet townhouse  that is owned by an Investment Group .
