For fix and flips I want to stay away from total rehabs and focus on properties that need minor work such as kitchen, bathroom, paint, outdoor improvements, etc. 

when I first started lending in Detroit in 2002.. the rehabbers there would paint the copper in the basements with grey paint in the low light theives would think its galvanized and not take it.

Rehab Scope:Cosmetic remodel: Painted the interior/exterior, updated the kitchen cabinets and countertops, and installed new flooring.Modernized fixtures: Replaced light fixtures, outlets, and switches throughout.Enhanced curb appeal: Painted the brick exterior, added landscaping, and modern black accents.Timeline: Completed the rehab in just 4 weeks to minimize holding costs.Strategic Upgrades: Focused on cost-effective improvements like vinyl flooring and fresh paint, wh What was the outcome?

Are they going to make you rip it out?

I know so many people who have been ripped off by contractors.  

@Kevin G. go hang out at your local Home Depot between 6-9am on a Saturday.They contractors there at that time are the hard-working ones.Then, you just have to figure out how to screen them so you don't get ripped off.- First Rule: you buy the materials, so they don't need 50% down!

Here's the details:ARV- $210- $220KRent: about $1,900/month3 beds/ 2 bathsNeeds: New roof, New HVAC, New fence, Minot touch ups inside like paint and cabinet touch ups.Rehab- About $40kI offered $140K and he countered with $190K.

Eg roof and siding on one, all new paint and countops.

We aren't the traditional flippers who run in, throw up a lick of paint, hide the disastrous side of things and essentially trick people into buying a lemon.
