We are presently advertising the unit for $975 (down from $1,050) with new kitchen cabinets, countertops, etc., new ceramic tile in the hallway, kitchen and bathroom, and bathroom completely redone (new bath and surround, new vanity, new ceramic floor, new toilet) all at a cost of some $10,000.

You have to of course demo all of the trim, remove the cabinets (but don't demo them, just unscrew them), backsplash, etc.  

The cabinets appeared to be in good condition, so I don't think I'll need to replace them.  

You don't want 5 different people and their spouses deciding what flooring or cabinets to put in.

It was from a Professional Flipper that had too many on his hands at once who I do work for (I am in the cabinet and counter top business full time) so we had a prior relationship.

The trick to all of it is knowing in advance how much wall to take away and still have room for the sofa or the hutch or the china cabinet, etc, etc.

I've decided to put a dishwasher in my rental (previous owner had theirs removed one and put a cabinet in).

(I now found out that there were offers which I saw in the cabinet, but I think they just did not want to sell, also we had a tenant in there)I want to try to sell the house myself now that is why I used a flat fee listing since Im not working right now and I want the experience, so far I have bought 3 homes at auction and rented them so I know a bit.

Sheetrock and paint should take about two weeks, and then two more weeks for finish work (floors, cabinets, lights, plumbing, etc).We hope to be complete by the first week in November...I'll post some pics in the next couple days...

I put a lot of work in... new paint, refrigerators,and refurbished hardwood in each unit. new cabinets and cut out wall with counter top in two units. had the floored pulled up and tiled in one of the kitchens as well. new coin operated washer and drier in basement. separated the hot water heaters and boilers of each unit because they where all on one big meter because it was owned by an agency. a lot of work at least for me, i put in a lot of time as well has hired friends and a contractor. however i still did not spend the 45k i projected, i spent under 15k big difference but could only get the price down to 140k.
