I do have a lot of questions and would like to hear what your experience has been, since you seem to have a similar strategy.

You state the value of comps in similar condition which is good for buying but not for selling a revamped house.Assuming you have $41K to play with (the difference between purchase and avg of comps) you will find that can be burnt through very quickly.

I am curious what the success rate for people who enter an MMM program is, because that seems to me like a more similar comparison.

I would throw out the comps that are more than 10 years older or newer and focus on the most similar for now.

I've run into similar situations, less concerned about the wear and tear, as to whether the health department has a limit.

Sign on your Car, similar to G.

Sounds like it may be similar to going to a Grateful Dead concert?
