Easy to install and very durable and shows really well so your rents will reflect a little higher.

My contractor painted the old ones and made them look good, bought partials and painted them so they looked (almost) the same, but I paid for ALL new cabinets.When I went back to the contractor after i paid him and told him I expected new cabinets... well lets just say it would have taken more time and energy (and that is a finite commodity) than I was willing to engage, so I licked the wounds and made sure I didn't make the same mistake next time.The other thing with the "Flip that House" shows, their numbers only reflect: Expected sales price - Purchase price - rehab cost =profitWhat about carrying costs, realtor fees, taxes, insurance, etc., and the possibility that your buyer doesn't pay full price?

To do the 13 hr shift we're talking about here would require the daughter to be an adult, or 18 yrs old.I would never rent to travelling nurses in any case, but if you continue to do so, Wendy, I would definitely change your lease so that the wording reflects your desires for the property.

This could generally be collaborated with a credit report as the rental and credit history are often reflective.

The cost of closing shoulld reflect the document preperation required, they shouldn't be tagging you with a full closing cost as if they were filing title and liens as they may be for the end buyer.Get with the closing agent and work it out line by line, many of the costs may be passed on to your buyers or sellers limiting your expenses.

Your lot value would decrease, and you wouldn't be able to use similar Duplex lots as comps.Also, an appraiser may believe that a property will increase an "estimated 10%", but that also won't reflect in the appraisal.

Might be true and If the property is empty a swag on rent is more possible but with tenants in place it's harder to believe that those rents don't really reflect reality for the property as is. 

My investment strategy has 80% construction loan built into it but I would like to have that be reflected in my calculations for potential investors.

Check with your local municipality and see if they have a website that might reflect these.
