We did a complete cosmetic lift in addition to new central A/C including ductwork and other repairs.

we have a contractor going in to do cosmetic work and some minor repairs. we plan on renovating one side in a two month period time frame.

Sale price: $97,500 Nice brick rancher in Rossville, needed cosmetic work

Additionally, most cities do not take such drastic measure for properties that only need cosmetic repairs.I can tell you from doing gut renovations, it would be nearly impossible to renovate a multifamily (2-4 unit) building for less than $50/ft2. 

Sale price: $55,000 Cosmetic rehab condo in the Brainerd area, I think the buyer had it finished in 2 weeks

We want to renovate a bathroom and downstairs and other cosmetic work.

We'll be looking for a house that needs cosmetic fixes only.The plan is to live in this house for one year then move out and rent it out as a LTR, buy another property and repeat the process.

The extra 3k is for any cosmetic upgrades or repairs that I make to add some value although that isn't the main goal with this house hack.

The inital financing was FHA 203K which I usually do not like using as the costs can get crazy but we were able to make it work being a 2 unit and keeping it relatively cosmetic.

Appraiser would not make a market-reflective upward adjustment in rental rate due to poor cosmetic condition of interior.
