Where do you live that you can buy a fourplex for just $130K and charge only $475?

My best suggestion is simple: try to find contractors that are willing to work without trip charges.

Charge it to my head not to my heart.

Since the year on the original post was 2005, I'm betting this tenant has already been evicted, or this landlord is no longer landlording...

Not only do they make money working the land, but also buy charging people to do things like run around in corn mazes and the like.I was just curious what other activities people create for this "agritourism"?

Charging $75,000 for a book is not the way.

They are a asset listing comapny and charge for the use of there site.

1 thing you can do is to go register at Home Depot as a Contractor, this will give you access to supplies so you have an idea....for labor call a contractor and ask what he charges...X's how long you figure the project should take...and there you go...go do it several times and you should be pretty close.

I basically used some cell phone minutes getting everyone together and charged a percentage.

This one might be bet for the appraisers out there.
