I have seen it used on tile floor thresholds too....or something that looked like it, very clean look.

There are a variety of methods for finding off-market deals, with direct mailing being the most popular.

Purchase price: $41,000 Cash invested: $66,000 Coastal Bungalow with laminate floors throughout, 3BR/1BA with LR, FR, Clean Kitchen with breakfast bar, (2) brick fireplaces.

I'm using the BRRRR method to acquire SFH.  

Here is what sticks out to meproperty taxes seem very low, try and verify on assessors website.always assume there are some repairs, even if its just cleaning carpet and mending a few drywall errors.i try and add in at least 1k-ishverify interest ratesmy local area is climbing to almost 4.5 and 5%closing costs as wellunless you have records of utility's guess higher then you would normallyHope this helps i cant really say more without knowing more.

After a thorough cleaning, I replaced all carpets; painted several rooms with modern colors & touched up the others; upgraded a few fixtures; and, made several small but impactful cosmetic improvements.What was the outcome?

Sometimes with fixer uppers the best bang is just clean, not redoing the kitchen, etc.

They many times than use the BRRR method to keep financing the next property.

It just needed touch up paint and carpet cleaning. 

Make sure you conduct a title search for clean title.Good Luck.
