I am looking at flipping a property (4 bed, 2 bath, ~1,800 sq. ft) in NJ and the estimate I received seems high, so I was looking for some peer feedback.I was looking to change the following:Kitchen (new cabinets, counter-top, flooring)2 bathrooms (new flooring, new sinks and cabinets, new fixtures)4 bedrooms (new flooring)paint entire interior (~1,800 sq. ft)Flooring throughout entire house Basement (new carpet, ceiling tiles)GC came back with an estimate of $75,000 without HVAC and $85,000 with HVAC.

Now I’m working on closing on my first full rental, a vacant 1,250 sq ft 3 bed 1.5 bath home.

Could definitely use some updating and it's not the best neighborhood in town, but you should be able to get ~$1100/month on the 2-beds, maybe $1300 for the 3-bed.

Each unit is 1 bed/1 bath approx 1000 sq foot and shotgun style units.

@Kyle McKnett we already use Netflix, and I after work I’m with my kids and girlfriend spending time with them before bed and do it all over again.

.#2: Those are actually landscape timbers made into a flower bed.

We also have a strong agricultural job market.Because we have several colleges in WW and a fairly stable employment market most rentals regardless of bed/bath do well. 

Seems there are a lot of mixed reviews on many in the "hot-bed" cash-flow markets.

With the average rent being listed as $888 for the city of Lubbock, that leads me to believe that the "decrease" on paper is due to the large influx of student properties having rent listed by the bed as opposed to by the unit which is very common with the large resort-style properties. 

A majority of the 2 bed condos are priced under $1300/month for rent, so you would have to sell this one as well.
