I focused on the three things people see when first walking in to a home (in my opinoin) and that is -Flooring -Kitchen-Exterior paintI Installed new flooring and paint the cabinets with new hardware.

The units have been completely updated with new flooring, paint, light fixtures, designer hardware, granite tops, vanities, showers and appliances.

Inflation has hit us all where it hurts the most, our wallets.

Gold hardware? 

They make them small enough to fit handrail hardware and long enough to get into the masonry.

wallet How did you add value to the deal?

As long as it is at or above your mortgage balance, you will actually be making money each month if you break even on the sale (plugs the hole in your wallet).Another option is to contact your tenants and see if they would like to buy the house.

Anyone know where to get better deals than big box stores on Flooring, windows, siding, hardware and fixtures, etc.??

Quality of paint, floors, windows, hardware, fixtures, etc.   

Rehab Wallet is the best for short term (bridge and fix and flip).They're extremely easy to use.
