I want to find something that needs some work. With connections I have made through the years I can get the supplies and work done for next to nothing.. Here is a example.
The town house were looking at is over 1,700sqft.3 story 3 bed 2.5 bath.
Needs appliances, flooring,paint and some other odds and ends.. Before we went and looked at the place the bank said it needs about 20k worth of work.
If this thing ever goes through I'll be adding
hardwoods throughout the house
Multi piece crown molding
Granite in the kitchen and bathrooms, full baths will get granite shower enclosure
Master bath will also get a ultra air tub & heated flooring
Recessed lighting in the kitchen
Travertine tile in bathrooms
Gerber viper tolilets
Rohl plumbing fixtures
Samsung appliances in SS
All this is going to cost me under 10 grand
The property is bank owned I'm just mad they countered my offer then I met there demands and haven't got a call yet.
