The real motivation for ME PERSONALLY was through the contacts and the network I built by doing so as well as the joy and satisfaction I get from being on stage as the educator rather than the hungry student I once was in the audience.

As others have stated, typical replacement should run $100-200, depending on whether it's a plumber who is used to working with contractors or a plumber who is used to working retail.It shouldn't take more than 1-2 hours, and even having to purchase a brand new water heather ($450-500 plus maybe another $40 for an expansion tank), the bill shouldn't come to more than $700 on the high end.

These are the comps I used to influence the BPO.Then, there's brand new construction (built in 2009), with similar square footage and beds/baths, which sold recently for $380k.I'm very curious to know if the $345 would get appraised, because that buyer is not willing to pay the difference in a short appraisal.And I'm seriously thinking about emailing my title agent and asking for a new HUD at $260k.

If I bought a brand new $100,000 Mercedes convertible today and sold it to Brian tomorrow for $5,000, does that mean that the Mercedes is only worth $5,000?

I would think that if it is a brand new home, just built, the builder has already figured the price for this market.If it is a "new" house and it's unsold inventory, sitting unsold for a couple of years, the builder would be very willing to listen to low offers.

Make sure that number is succinct if you proceed, because it would be a shame to spend that much to sell for so little.Seriously consider what a brand new improvement costs in your location and what new construction sells for before making final decision.
