I registered here recently, and after doing some browsing aroundI've come to the conclusion that I am extremely ignorant at this point regardingthe details of property investment or flipping.

Unless you are providing the equivalent of a mil-spec for the scope of work, there is a tremendous variable in materials, application, preparation, workmanship, project management, and 1001 other details.
