Another issue with the SAFE Act is the principal pay down required prior to a balloon, so attempting to have the buyer assume amounts under this issue is another problem.Other issues, with subject to deals, death, tax liens, judgments, bankruptcy of your seller will bring your deal in the light of day, it's your responsibility to sell to the buyer.

What we did was just wiped down the wood cabinets, trim and doors, sprayed them with lacquer, primed and painted the walls and either cleaned or replaced the light fixtures.

Hiring an electrician would cost $150 for labor to install a light switch and light.

I may have already answered my own question and that is by brining in an appraiser... however I could be wrong and here is the question.Let's say there is a house for foreclosure with everything pretty much done already... granite countertops, hardwood floors, new appliances, net light fixtures, ect... how would you compare this house to other ones recently sold on the market that has similar features like bathrooms, bedrooms, lot size, ect.. but not all the upgrades?

idk but we called it the whorehouse. these were built down there as no way to fit thru the crawl access panel.we got those out pretty quick...didn't want prospects to look and think this was hooker paradise.there was also 8 10 lights hooked up by romex down there. maybe growing pot?

Welcome to BP Daniel,I haven't dealt with those smells, but my first rehab was a smoker that had live in the prop for 14 years, the white melamine cabinets are now a beautiful uniform beige color haha.To clean the grease off I would look for something called "purple power" or "greased lightning".

I use to keep up with most material costs and I'd do a walk through and estimate on the spot then double the material costs and that was close enough for light jobs.

You might consider loose lay flooring like Karndean, very easy to work with(no gluing required) also have a lot of options for colors and styles.

I had flash backs of the 90's... boyz 2 men, color me badd, c&c music factory, etc...WORD UP!

I assume some of these properties will have liens attached to them - that does not happen here - can anyone shed some light?
