Painting, carpet cleaning, general cleaning, and door latch replacement?

Replace existing carpet with engineered hardwood flooring and baseboards - approx. 475'2.Paint entire interior of townhouse3.

I can't paint the story any differently than that.

I hired a general contractor for replacing roof, remodel kitchen and bathroom along with painting and some other work. the whole project is about $ 65k which include materials and labor with a payment schedule . he's been very slow and for three months not getting much done due to he's having a few jobs at the same time .

It's about then some ask about painting, etc.3 months in you go in with something new, it's an opportunity to strengthen the relationship, show you care about the property.

t rent it.I ended up getting a skilled tradesman in each house.one guy is an actual house builder that hit bad times during the recession the other guy works with his father installing and remodeling bathrooms and kitchens.both these guys came signed the lease on the first tenant I allowed him to move in with security plus 200.00the difference was the paint and drywall repair and cabinets stained and house cleaned. that I would have paid someone else to do out of pocket which I didnt have.gettting that money allowed me to take care of a 350 plumbing problem and a furnace issue that came upthe other house the guy moved in for security plus 300 for the first two months less than half the actual rent because he is going to do all the painting and the bathroom remodelsome drywall repair and hang ceiling fans.he is working alongside my contractor and my contractor has now gotten a new partner and he has okayed this guy to do the workall things worked out.and now my two houses have some capable people in them who wont come crying everytime there is a minor problemI know this isnt the ideal way to do business but I sort of started out over extended.

Have you considered using paint to change the feel of them?

If you havent already, I would allocate funds to the exterior paint job and landscaping, to ensure that it pops enough to "one-up" the other homes on the block.

Interior air handler unit needs furnace replaced, minor wood work on front columns, paint and carpet. easy cosmetic rehab.

Your offer price then would be 163,000 going in.Seller always like to underreport expenses and puff occupancy to paint a rosy picture.
