In the old days, grandpa would buy the shingles and spend his week of vacation from the factory replacing the roof when it was needed.

Of course, tough to build 50,000 units in one person's back yard, but there will be some people build granny flats, or garage apartments and you may see some office converted to residential. 

Asking price: $399kRehab: $65kARV: 570k The roof was replaced in 2024, the water heater in 2019, HVAC in 2019.The house looks to be in good condition..., but will need some cosmetic repairs. 

What are my best options for leveling the garage floor so I have a flat surface to begin the interior build out on?

Now I've finally hit a much more steady patch (knock on wood) now that they're all renovated and up to a certain standard (new roofs, hvac, etc).

The roof, The hvac, etc, etc.Go to your cpa when you buy it and tell him you want to use cost segregation so you can maximize as much depreciation up front as you can.

I have a new builder now, but because the roof is already on and it is 80-90% complete, I can't find anyone who will write a builder's risk policy for it.

The windows, roof, electricals, plumbing systems, and gas lines all need major upgrade to bring the property up to date. 

We are buying the lot next-door and we’re building an eight bedroom house that is three stories and will have a roof top pool, where you can look out and see the ocean.
