It it will need about 20,000 in rehab IMO. and may be less, since it looks like the house it's self wasn't involved in the flooding, but I am sure it was pretty close to the bottom floor, if not def flooding the crawl space.

I'm trying to label the true, bottom line money that can be spent, after setting aside for long term Capex.

Bottom line, while I'm not saying you can't succeed w/o a job, your chances are slim so suck up the job you hate for a short period of time.

Particularly in this industry.We've found that the largest avoidable cost we encounter is turnover, and anything we can do to reduce it will increase our bottom line.

Bottom line it is possible but you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find a keeper.

If it's for a step being over height then go buy some pavers for $20 and make a lower step on the bottom.

As @Steve Babiak pointed out, it's not just replacing the floor.. it's doing the quarter round and baseboard, and  assuming they know how to put it back correctly, what if they break a board, do they have a table saw?  

I just sold off the old washer/dryer, then found some mold on the bottom of the dry wall.

South Carolina though in bottom 10 in median income is a good example of concern

It wasn't really that long ago that the point of going to college was to go to college - i.e. become a well-read, well-rounded individual such that one would be an asset to society in general.
