I do have some experience with rehab projects, I usually worked on my friends and family condos (never houses)..scope of the project usually included light plumbing jobs (new faucet, sink, connect plumbing underneath the sink, light electrical job : installing new fans, demoing non-load bearing walls, framing around pipes ducts rewiring/running romex from point A to B, new flooring – allure, painting, light carpentry like installing new cabinets, overseeing granite installations, tiling work etc).

Even with a license you still need licensed subs for some trades - mechanical, electrical and plumbing, commonly.Getting a GC license is typically just a matter of taking a test and paying the fees.

We are looking to just payoff our loan and move on with other projects.What we have done since purchase:-painted exterior -replaced bad roof on garage and porch -gutted first floor walls and ceiling -purchased 5 replacement windows to upgrade the ones which are outdated (comes with the house) -gutted the plumbingWhat needs to be done: Repair/replace some weak/rotted floor joists -Reinforce the trusses (outdated and weak) -Add some foundation support -Install the windows already purchased (come with house) -Install new electric -Install new plumbing -Install new furnace/AC and some duct work -Insulate and drywall the first floor -Paint interior walls and ceilings -Install new flooring -Install full kitchen and 1.5 bathroomsThe basement is accessible only from the exterior of the house and is a small (approx 10x10) room for furnace/water heater and the rest of it is crawl space.Total rehab cost = $45,000Purchase $59,900+45,000 rehab = $105,000 costEstimated After Repaired Value $160,000-170,000There are two bedrooms now, but a third is framed in to be added on the first floor.We have a short term loan which must be paid off, so we cannot do any type of owner financing.So that is the info I got from this source I don't own this I'm looking at making a deal let me know ur input thanksPS BP is da bomb !!!!!

Need some work for the heat, plumbing, electric, bath, floor, wall, siding, roof.Let say the purchase price is $130k- What would be the average cost ($$$$)?

I love spending time with the 2 year old but going to do some plumbing here and there is a relief from the chasing, time outs, screaming and tantrums.

The unstable soil around here can cause foundation/plumbing/ roof costs to jump quick if you under estimate.

Apart from the move, you'll also want to get some bids on hookups (i.e. plumbing, gas, electric, HVAC, etc).

Got him down to $157.5k but to me, at 7% and still have to pay either for oil or add two heaters and split plumbing, it's just not worth it.Thinking to avoid all the hassles, thinking either stick to SFH or put up modular duplexes where everything is new.

Foundation issues are one... plumbing is another.

We have new plumbing, the roof, and a new plan that is rocking and rolling almost to Electric and finishing touches!
