some cool linoleum.
I'm putting down hardwood in the living room and tile in the kitchen.

then what? You're going to spend a lot to get that house back into shape.
About 15,000 in materials. I'm doing all the work myself.

It's got a fenced in back yard and one bathroom is wheel chair accessible which we will probably keep as selling point.

Check out the street view, some questionable gentlemen in wheelchairs in the garage.

With all those rooms at only 2100 sq feet, aren't the rooms pretty small?
Are you buying it to fix up and resell for profit?

The 3 car garage is massive. I'll have my workshop in there and probably turn one of the bedrooms into a home gym. It's just me and the wife so we can close off half of the house till I get everything ready.

yes eventually. We've got $30,000 to put down so the loan amount will be minimal. I plan to buy materials as needed but we will renovate the kitchen, master, and living, immediately.

Why do you want us to know all of this?

WAIT, you're not buying this to resell? You're actually going to live in this house and you're only going to spend $15,000 in materials?
Might wanna double that budget there chief.

The same reason people post pictures of their vacation. I'm sharing part of my life with members of TD. I always enjoy reading your guys point of view.

I agree. but doing all the flooring myself at 2.00 a sq. ft. I'm out less then 5,000. Paint will run around 500, and cabinets around 6,000 for a 10x10 kitchen. Water heater 500 and so on.

No sink hole but I will make sure the landscaping is perfect.
Posted on 7/13/15 at 3:13 pm to Mud_Till_May
black mold festering between the stucco and wood along with wood rot.

Yikes...someone is underestimating a lot of stuff.
BTW, is that a steal for that area? Looks like a normal old house priced about correctly with the market or maybe slightly under but in no way does it look like a homerun.

I'm the Mexican backhoe in this scenario.

It'll cost him 50k to fix it up.
