    Absolutely! If you're talking about rehabbing and then reselling the property, all you need is to keep the cost of improvements down. If you're talking about rehabbing and then renting out the property, again, make sure the improvements will be bring in higher rents - enough to justify the expense.

    Find a reputable contractor who can help you out or go alone. Either way, the key is to keep your costs down.

    Tell us more about what you're thinking about and we can help you better.

    Getting the property for enough below the market is key.
    Takes more searching but it is worth it.

    I would rather look at 100 properties and not buy any of them, than to buy 1 that is an aligator.

    Hi,
    There are various ways that you can do a rehab. Each has their merits and associated costs. Regardless, I can complete a rehab for you based on your requirements. If you would like to see some of my work, I have before, during and after pictures of rehabs. Please contact me for the web site addresses and then after review if you are interested we can discuss your needs.
    thanks..pete.
