It has fresh paint and new appliances.

My name is Austin and I'm not brand new, but have been gone long enough to warrant a fresh introduction.I started in real estate in Florida, mostly by accident.

Buying the last house took almost a year (we got it off the market with me making $35K and just an offer letter for my wife fresh out of college so it was an ordeal), so I assumed this would take a few months.

I could imagine that learning a new market is kind of like starting out fresh, but the advantage you have is your knowledge of the process and your network.

Scope: New kitchen, new bath, refinished the 95 year old white oak (front of house) & birch (hallways & bedrooms) floors, retrimming some areas to remediate shoddy work that had accumulated over the years, lots of cracked plaster repair, restored painted door & window hardware, and fresh paint throughout.

I don't want to ramble on too much, this is already quite long, but if anyone with experience (or even just fresh eyes) can punch holes in my plan I would greatly appreciate it.Thank you in advance,The knowledge hungry investor

This is fresh on my mind only because I'm in the process of getting my real estate license in Louisiana.  

It looks like these were purchased previously as turnkeys, meaning the rehabs would be new and fresh, but they aren't now so that sets you up for having to deal with potential repairs and even a freshly rehabbed house needs an inspection to verify everything, much less houses that haven't been rehabbed in a while.Like I said, I haven't worked with them to say for sure on any of it.

In 2013 my wife and I were fresh out of college, and I mean the ink was still drying on our diplomas, when we got pregnant with our daughter.

I wanted a fresh take on it.For people in CA I was curious if you had a certain rule of thumb for $/unit for insurance?
