You might be well into orders for cabinets, flooring, & appliances by the time someone asks about options (wink, wink), but now they're interested and maybe you could squeeze in a different backsplash or paint colors.  

The house needs everything: Roof, gutters, siding (asbestos shingles nailed over older cedar shingles), drainage abatement, rehabbed bath, total kitchen, replaced flooring (half), refinished flooring (other half), back steps, total landscape, HVAC (old furnace is missing), insulation (2" in attic; none elsewhere) additional electrical circuits, plumbing includes iron pipes, interior trim and paint.

The property was in a great area and only needed flooring in the living room and it was in move-in condition. 

I'll reply with what trick solves it.Right now I'm looking at a bleach solution on the tile and concrete floors, and maybe just a simple 409 Orange (watered down a bit) for the walls.I'm also pinging a local Austin ozone treatment service to get a quote on having the house treated.

Both units need work; here are the larger items:Appliances (Unit A needs range + fridge; Unit B needs fridge): $1,500Floors (flooring needed in living area, hallway, bedrooms - probably use vinyl): $3,000Windows (need to be re-sealed) + New Doors (front screen door, doors in basement to yard, etc.): $1,500Paint (most rooms need paint): $1,000Roof Shingles: (may or may not need to do; roof missing a few shingles near gutter): $300Dryer Duct (missing a piece that connects from laundry room to outside, quick fix): $100Hot Water Heaters (electric) x 2: $2,000 (which is probably way high, but trying to be conservative).TOTAL ESTIMATED REHAB BUDGET (which is probably sky-high): $9,400ESTIMATED CLOSING COSTS: $5,000 all-inPROJECTED CASH-ON-CASH RETURNS: 14.91%=====================SECTION 8 PROGRAMI really need to educate myself on the Section 8 program. 

So I'm hiring a property manager to take care of the top three floors of the house while I occupy the basement.I am in great debate with myself in taking a line of credit on my house to do renovations to the basement.

What if the drawer is sticking because the cabinet is losing square.....because the base is damaged, or because the floor is sinking.  

The home did indeed smell smoky inside on the top floor(though there didn't appear to be any smoke damage), and we couldn't really tell about the roof from looking at it below.

They driveway has to go from the street to the garage floor, and you can't lower the home or raise the street.I have had several rental inquiries and I am willing to do that, but I couldn't get refinancing.

Guest BathMasterLaundry room, large and lots of storage, floor to ceiling cabinets not pictured.The backyard is very nice for this area.I got it for $98k after a multiple offer situation. 20% down 15 yr 3.375% loan (I don't like paying interest very much).
