    Thank you Phil for the excellent tips when doing a home inspection. I'm new to real estate investing, and estimating the repair costs was one of my concerns when deciding whether a home is worth the time and effort, or if it might result in a disappointing loss of money in the long run. I'll be viewing your other helpful videos as well. Steve.

    Now this is smart, and can be done easy enough. I learned a great deal with this video on how to look at homes and what to do. Definitely worth my time to seek out more homes like this one. I saw a home near me that had a trashed barn that needed to be completely gutted, trashed up to the waist in trash bags, fire barrel was full, house was a double wide with the septic totally cracked, and it needed a lot of new stuff. They wanted 65K for it but with all that was wrong (to include the carpet, etc) I will wait till it comes via tax sale before paying that much.

    Such a nice and comfortable house. Great location, the lake view is just amazing, I mean will be when the trees and bushes ruining the view are cut down. The owner must have been a very motivated seller. That mess was just insane, good thing they finally took the time to sit down and reflect on their life and where they are going with it which landed you a great deal I guess? I hope you can clean the place and make the best out of this property. Anyways, great video as always, I really like learning about creative real estate through your videos : )

    I've found that when I'm estimating rehab costs, I look up the items (windows, flooring, kitchen appliances, etc.) at one of the big box stores website, and then multiply those numbers by 3 times. It gets me close to the actual cost. For instance, say it costs $250 for a double-hung window, I would budget $750 to replace the window. 2 gallons of paint costs $70 and will paint a small bedroom, I would budget $210 to paint the room. Some projects will cost a little more, and some will cost a little less, but they will average out pretty close. It's also a good idea to add 20% for contingencies too, for unexpected costs.
