Today I went to the home going to need a lot of work but my father told me around $80,000 that includes plumbing, electrical, kitchen, renovate one bathroom add an additional bath to master suite on second floor, creating an open floor plan, finishing the basement, Vinyl siding for exterior, windows, and extensive landscaping.

I had vanities, tile, cabinet/counter top samples, etc in the garage.

Hi, We are in Rochester, NY and need to take out an old irregular sized tub and replace with tiled walk-in shower (not enough room to replace with new standard sized tub) and shelving on one side (this solves our dilemma of making more storage for 3 people in a very tiny bathroom).

Their is a bi-level single family house that was forclosed to lender back in April of this year and It is now being sold for $60K:- 1846 sqft built in 1956 - Finished basement; 896 sqft- 3 bedroom 2 bathroom- Close to a universityNOTE: It was utilized  as a two unit prior.

Sweat equity is not for the faint of heart, but the reason I ask is because if you have extra square feet available inside your house, you could force appreciation by adding an extra bedroom, or, maybe even a bathroom. 

Assuming no doubling-up, I don't see five people being happy sharing one bathroom for very long.Is the property vacant?

People do not mind old kitchens or old bathrooms here, as long as they are clean, but central heat and air will give a huge jump on anyone else.One of the reasons some people choose apartments over single family homes is because of central heat & air.

Of course, the kitchen and bathrooms have to be re-done.

House just had a pipe burst, my renovations are at 45k and that doesn't include new bathrooms or kitchens... will update soon.
