Douglas,do not be intimidated by this, best thing for you to do, if the floor is the major project, is to decide what material you would like to install ( tile, hardwood, laminate flooring, sheet vinyl ) that will determine how much work is involved. i would ask around at lumber yard, local hardware store or neighbors and friends who they would recommend. you call a couple of contractors ( some may not be interested do to the size of the job) and ask them to come over to give you a price for the work.

We have most of those materials left over from other projects that we have already done (The cabinets will be salvaged from current apartment renovations) We get the countertops cheap because we manufacture them.  

I have a 4 unit MF building that gets very dark at night, from the front yard, courtyard/common area, and alley way.

The only way to expand the parking behind the house is to add concrete to the existing parking which takes away from the back yard.

There are some people who prefer acreage and big back yards, so there are homes to suit them as well.

Cleaned up yard, landscaped and refreshed retaining wall with some paint and crack repair.

Cleaned up yard, rebuilt existing garage, and put in additional fencing to accommodated RV parking What was the outcome?
