Lots of rolls of teflon tape, plumbers sandpaper, ALLWAYS bring a roll or two of paper towels and dawn dishsoap for clean up of you and tools and messes.

I do have a rental house with somewhat similar purchase/rent numbers though that doesn't cash flow well on paper, but it's completely remodeled so at least for now my maintenance/repair costs are essentially 0.  

We want to participate in the tax auction, where land owners have not paid their taxes and are listed in the paper. 

What considerations should I be taking aside from the obvious (carpet, curtains, wall paper removal, vent cleanings, etc...). 

The next day, he tells me the cabinets are going to come in pre-finished, because the unfinished ones won't work in my layout.  

We are working on opening up walls in the main areas to improve the layout.

That was the first thing I thought of when this house was featured in the paper, too.

@Gita Faust, the layout is just much simpler to use and the way the information is presented is much easier to look.Are you using a specific software for your own business?

So ours is actually located under our front stoop and the layout was pretty confined by the space we were working with.

Also, regardless of how nice you rebuild, it is still a home built 10, 15, 20, 30... years ago on paper right?
