When you add in things like rewiring, replumbing, roof replacement, HVAC replacement, siding replacement, replacing all windows/doors, replacing cabinets, replacing tubs/showers, etc, things tend to get much more expensive, even in lower-cost rehabs and areas where labor is cheap.Personally, I'd use $15/sf for a full interior cosmetic rehab, but for a *full rehab* (including all the stuff listed above), my numbers are closer to $30/sf.That said, as a rehabber, you probably want to be much more precise than just a price per square foot...as a wholesaler, this *may* be good enough, but it's still important to know when a rehab will be $15/sf versus $20/sf...on a 2000 sf rehab, that's a difference of $10K.
