Real Estate Investing Projects

The Yosemite House (2010)


BEFORE: This is the view from across the street. It looks OK, until you start getting closer...	BEFORE: The fascia needs to be scraped and painted. The roof is in dire need of replacement and we are growing grass in the gutters. The bid for the roof replacement is $4800.

BEFORE: This is the front view of the back "mother-in-law" unit. It needs to have a security door installed and the old wood frame windows need replacing. The bid for all new windows is $4800.	BEFORE: This is the street view of the back unit. This roof passed inspection, but the old wood fence needs replacing. The stucco will be pressure washed and only the trim will be painted.

BEFORE: This is the common area that is shared by both units. The majority of the work here will be on replacing the patios and leveling the concrete floor. I may just cover that grass patch with cement too.	BEFORE: The concrete floor is made up of 2x2 squares that were not set on solid ground and are now lifting. This is a tripping hazard. The bid is $2200 to remove these squares and pour new concrete.

BEFORE: This patio will need to be completely removed and redone correctly by a licensed contractor.	BEFORE: This is the utility room. The patio is skeletal and the inside has no roof at all. The door will also be replaced.

BEFORE: I'm not sure what I want to do with this garage door just yet.

BUDGET: $12,000 ESTIMATE (based on bids) New roof: $ 4800 New windows: $ 4800 Patio repair: $ Paint fascia & trim $ New gutters $ External Doors $
