Help estimating rehab costs

[Jared Garza]

Hello, I am wondering if you guys could help me get a ballpark estimate of rehab costs on a property. 

It is a 2/1 900sqft house that needs most things done. 

Possibly a little foundation work (it’s on blocks)

new water heater

needs central ac/heat installed

new roof (fascia and all components included)

new flooring possibly some subfloor replacement

exterior siding work(paint some, replace some)

some drywall work where there are some small and large holes in the ceiling and walls in a couple of spots. 

couple windows replaced because of broken glass

all new doors (2 exterior 3 interior)

new cabinets and counters in kitchen

new bathroom sink+vanity

This is in South Mississippi and would be using cheaper materials because it’s in a lower class neighborhood. 

If anyone’s able to help I’d really appreciate it. Trying to help a lady avoid foreclosure due to tax delinquency. 

Thank You!

Jared

Hey Jared,

I'll try to help, but some of these are hard to answer without more info or pictures.  This is what I would budget assuming its a lower class neighborhood and having a handy man do most of the repairs.

Possibly a little foundation work (it’s on blocks) - not descriptive enough

new water heater - $700 to $900 (Labor & Material)

needs central ac/heat installed - $4 to 7k for both ac & furnace units

new roof (fascia and all components included) - assuming asphalt shingles, ~ 12 squares, probably $3 to $5k (Labor & Material)

new flooring possibly some subfloor replacement - not descriptive enough...you can get install a vinyl tile for ~$4...subfloor work may be around $45 to $60 per 4x8 sheet to replace 

exterior siding work(paint some, replace some) - paint is generally $1 to $1.50 per sf, but could be more if there is alot of scraping, patching, etc (Labor & Material)

some drywall work where there are some small and large holes in the ceiling and walls in a couple of spots. - budget $500 to have a guy patch walls for a day or two (Labor & Material)

couple windows replaced because of broken glass - if you can replace the panes maybe $100 to 150 each, otherwise full window ~$300 each. (Labor & Material)

all new doors (2 exterior 3 interior) - Steel or fiberglass exterior doors $300 to $500 each, hollow core, 6 panel interior doors $125 to $150 each. (Labor & Material)

new cabinets and counters in kitchen - Assuming builder grade cabinets from Home Depot, ~$2k to $3k for cabinets, & <$1k for laminate counters

new bathroom sink+vanity - Builder grade vanity $400 to $600 Labor & Material
