If you rehab your improvements as a package will add value...total bathroom remodel with new tile, floor, vanity top and fixtures...your appraiser should be able to add the cost/value to your purchase price.

For managing properties, do you offer different management packages to your clients or is it all the same service?

Include the quote with your package and maybe the rehabber likes it and gets in touch with the contractor.In that case you are being honest and the contractor can choose to do the quote or not.

Totally agree and I cringe when I see the local guru selling classes to investors at $500 per class, then $1000 per weekend, then $10,000 for the “special package”This site has everything you need, and you can basically get it for free.

Does anyone have experience with using an estimating software package to develop rehab costs?

We also have a double-wide on the property that is in average condition built in early 2000's We imagine the land is worth 30k and the house as is maybe 30k (3b2b 1640SqFt))What we are seriously wondering is whether to flip the double-wide and sell as a package with land and for more than double its worth, or to flip the double-wide conservatively and concentrate on the possible rents instead over the long term.Ideally because of the location and how much the property prices are rising in the area we can renovate the double wide to look beautiful and sell as an idealic country home with deck/fencing and put 20k-30k into the flip and sell all for $150k +So our main question is is it worth investing so much into a double-wide flip coz the location/land is sought after?

Give them a call to understand exactly what the packaged prices include.
