New carpets?  

The better carpet is only 25 cents more per foot you might say.  

I'm looking at everything from carpet/paint, to counters, bathrooms, roof, maybe siding. 

New carpet and paint  plus all the electrical and plumbing "up to code" stuff so hopefully it get done by the end of march. 

Carpet looked great, the linoleum was the thin variety, and I'd choose thicker on my rehabs. 

Unfortunately nearly everyone wanted to wait until we had new carpet, paint and our upgrades done before committing. 

Drywall 5000 - doors 75 each, cabinets 10 x 10 kitchen - 1500 - 3000, Countertop (laminate) - 300-500, fixtures - 1000, floors (carpet - 14 sq/yd, hardwood 2.50-3 sq/ft - int paint - 1500-3000, ext paint 1500-3000Not looking at anything custom, but a standard finish.Roof and siding are newer and may just need some minor repairs. - 1500-2000

to ease his concerns for allergies and air quality, i paid to have the old carpets in the first floor removed (they were there for 20 years)i am removing all the drop ceiling tiles and insulation in the second floor and installing new sheetrock throughout the second floor (close to 80 sheets or rock).

He basically thinks that anything that requires more than paint and some new carpet is a no-go and he keeps waiting for that 2 story mansion on auction for a $5K tax lien that no one else bids on, and refers back to that time a few years ago when the house across the street from him sold for $1,100 at a tax sale.

Anyway...I am expecting a high number to come back in regards to the hardwood floors under my carpet.
