people that have 5000 plus posts or so should have some input to such a major changeI for one really don't like it It's pretty and cute, not my cup of tea Please go back to original

-Replacing fixtures in kitchen and family room?  

Windows and window sills, baseboards, fixtures, appliances all must be clean, and no dead roaches lying around!

Originally posted by George Bloom:The contractor provides us with his cost estimates and we review them and perhaps negotiate them a bit, but in the end we agree to a fixed cost for the rehab.As Will pointed out above, you may be selling yourself short here...First, what incentive does your contractor have to use anything other than ultra-low-end materials, cheap fixtures, builder-grade flooring, etc?

I have a rental that is in a fancy area in Chicago and we do have nicer floors and other fixtures such as granite (quartz is really hot these days).

Cant get new ones (just screens) so all new window. 3. if older wiring it can overload it and cause severe issues. 4 central air was NOT expected 30-40 years ago in a rental,,now it sure is. 5.utility bills are so high with windows and so low with central it will make good tenants move or stay as case may be In THIS case the previous owner should not take the c/a because its a fixture,,,did he take the front door too?

No dry wall, no carpet, no cabinets, no toilets, no bathtubs, no light fixtures, no sub-flooring, no insulation, almost everything you can take out without the house falling down was gone.On top of that, even after this cleanup it didn't pass inspection tests for minimum acceptable levels.

We want to make this a fixture in our business but as we continue to grow we realize that we will not be able to originate 1000 notes a year on our own with the infrastructure we have now.

New fixtures, faucets, dishwasher, heater, ... and the added benefit of soft drinkable water.
