The six month timer is from the day you close on the purchase, and it's closing-to-closing... so we start them at the 4 or 4.5 month mark if the rehab work is done by that point, especially if the investor is in hard money that accrues interest at that horrid rate each and every day.

We have done all the cleaning ourselves when preparing and turning over the home and take care to do as good a job as possible for the next guest.My question is about what is considered standard, thorough cleaning-  The most recent guests seemed to have spent a lot of time in the kitchen.  

As a first-timer, find a loan officer who knows REI inside and out, offers competitive rates, and communicates well.

Kitchen cabinets are not in great shape, but all appliances except for the fridge are there (working or not, I don't know  - house is "winterized").

At least you have 2-3 other rents coming in and not missing rent for the whole place.The one thing I like about renting rooms separately is that I can access the common areas without giving notice (living room, hallways, kitchen, baths, etc).

The other waterfront properties around here are clustered into developer specials and either small cabins (think hotel room - no kitchen - but smaller) or massive (they are 5/5 and luxurious "high-end" houses).

get a 95 CFM fan and also put it on a timer.

Hi Everyone, I'm a part time real estate investor from San Jose, CA, investing primarily in buy and hold multi-family properties.

Hello all, I am working on my first flip and we came up with an open kitchen with an island that has the oven in it.

A deck that needs repairs will be around 7K -15K for a moderate size of deck.A house with ARV of 300+ would pretty much need a new modern kitchen and that will be around 17K to 20KSuch a house will have at least 2 bath,  with about 7K to 10K per bathroom.
