I have a property in Florida where the HOA is responsible for maintenance and repair of all parts of the building outside of my unit walls, including the roof.

While we lean heavily on the pro's  for repairs and estimates it makes it much easier when we know the typical issues and concerns on the plumbing, roof, electrical etc sides of a property. 

No roof issues etc. 2.

One way to cut costs on a rehab is to leave the existing floor and roof in place and just put the new materials on top of them.

A new roof is about $7-8K.

Hello,I have a property that I am giving a face lift to (siding, new windows, partial roof, and new flooring.

We got multiple quotes covering demolition, carpentry, siding, roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, plumbing, insulation, plaster, flooring, and more!

You get exactly what you pay for.Here's another thought: What if you are in the middle of a flip and you come across a problem with your roof? 

For example there are 3 or 4 major utility companies just inside of Fayetteville and it seems like each property has a different structure/utility company.Other expenses = major capex (roofs, plumbing, flooring etc go bad eventually so I would save a monthly amount in a separate account for when these happen). 

The home will already have a view of the water from the front of home and would be a superior view to the roof deck since it is on the rear of the home.
