The scope of the work is general rehab stuff: floors, windows, doors, light weight exterior work, paint, fixtures etc.We are not looking for bottom of the barrel cheap labor, but fair priced rental quality work.Also, we would like to purchase more properties if we can find a contractor or network of contractors we trust.

Best budget underlayment for hand scraped 8mm laminate wood flooring.

I put about 5k-10k to make them nice again (new flooring, paint, necessary repairs). 

I bought this house in 2003 for $49,000 (Paid it off completely) and invested $60,000 into fixing up - everything is new: electric, plumbing, hvac, 2 floors addition, bathrooms, and new kitchen.

And, as you'll find out, by sticking that 100% hard money loan on a property, it establishes your lending floor and makes it much much easier to do your refi's since they'll be rate/term refi's.The alternative is putting down 20 to 25% and paying rehab out of pocket and then trying to find a bank that will do a cash out refi.  

But, in 55+, don't get 2nd/3rd floor units if there are no elevators as in some of the older, cheaper buildings.

That's a new kitchen and bath, flooring throughout, and paint in and out.

HI,I'm looking at a deal in Memphis, TN (SFR, 3bd, 2ba, 1335sqft) from a turnkey provider at $77900 and wanted to get the community's feedback.It just got leased with a tenant at $995/month on a 2 year lease.The turnkey provider made it rent-ready (new AC/Furnance, carpet, flooring, etc.) so no fix-up costs.Property taxes = $1490/yearInsurance estimate = $700/yearProperty Management = 9%/monthEstimate vacancy at 8% (1 month)Estimate maintenance at 10% (built in 1985)income:  $995/monthmonthly expenses:$80 = vacancy$124 = prop tax$58 = insurance$82 = prop mgmt.$100 = maintenanceTotal exp = $444/monthNOI = $551With loan, 25% down, fixed 5% at 30 year$322 ; Mortgage payments$229 = net cashflowIt looks like its in a "B" class area. 

Every single piece of flooring in the property is either being replaced or refinished.
