Bathroom hardward (TP and towel racks) - mount to a 1x4 plaque that is screwed to studs. you can pretty much hang on it without pulling out the hardware. i use entry level granite countertops - stain resistant, and should last a long time. i put LVP through the entire house, bathrooms and closets included. its water proof and scratch resistant. while the initial cost is more than carpet, you wont have to replace it as often. i use Sherwin-Williams Harmony line of paint, in a semi-gloss sheen. the semi-gloss is easier to wipe off for small marks, and the harmony line has deodorizers built in. for exterior door knobs, i use the smartkey knobs from kwikset. you can rekey a knob in a few minutes - no need to pay rekeying fees anymore. last tip - figure out which appliances your market typically provides. in my market, its not common to provide washers and dryers, so i dont. thats one less thing to have to repair. 4. i dont see an issue with the gas stove. to convert to electric you will need to have a 220V plug, which could be costly to install if not already there.

Does his statement hold water?

In reality that are other things that are important to them, perhaps WAY more important, but we discuss price by default because it's in our water. 

Its a great tool since it will prompt you with all the questions that you need to think about that you may not be including in your calculations.For example, you need to factor in how long you think a $100k rehab will realistically take you to complete (will it be 3 mos, 6 mos, 9 mos) and that will help you factor in all of your carrying costs such as interest on the borrowed money, insurance, heat, hydro, water, property taxes, etc.
