The house:  about 670 square feet, no garage, no basement - newish roof - great exterior - AWESOME huge yard - but the person who got it to try and flip it did a horrible job (he bought it for $66 K two years ago) and did not finish it. 

How much does a new roof or an HVAC cost in St.

So far, I've mainly worked rehabs for clients as 'boots on the ground' with those that have some experience putting new cabinets in a kitchen of their own or into a flip elsewhere. 

So I did all the cosmetic changes with nice high-end finishes, with a brand new roof, landscaping, paved walkways and stairs etc to bring the house to where it will command the target market-price.

What real estate investors need to think of right now -1 - as wealth dissipates from the market people need to keep a roof over their heads but you may then see a downsizing from class A’s to B’s and B’s to C’s.  

One of the realizations during the process was that it would have been helpful to have a boots on the ground person doing informal inspections on the property.

Demolition entrance porch and bathroom ( including block supporting structure (steps will remain on (do not demo)) - replace with wood to support structure and if absolutely necessary use block if needed but minimize cost here as well.Construct gable roof structure to replace bathroom and porch to meet minimum size requirements for bathroom - adjust the entrance way to bathroom only to minimum requirementsRoof must be metalAll new electrical and plumbing beneath ( I have an electrician who I have contracted to do teh whole unit)Provide the bare minimum cost kitchen counter and cabinets including sink if needed.

How old is the roof?

The landlord just put a new roof on and installed new AC units in both units.
