Looking for guidance on my first renovation house.

Zach Fulton
Posted

I just bought a 3/2 1200 sqft home in Greenville, SC. I was able to get a good price on it and am now trying to figure out how much to put into it. 

It needs:

13 Windows

HVAC work(Cool works great, heat doesn't. Maybe its the furnace?)

New Paint

New flooring(LVP or hardwoods are underneath. What do you recommend?)

Decks

Master Bathroom

Kitchen appliances and cabinets to be repainted. 

What order should I do this? How much should I be putting into it for it to be a rental.

Others have shared some great insights already. One thing I would say about the flooring is that if you go LVP over the hardwoods underneath they handle the wear and tear of renters better, are easier to replace, are trendy, and if you decide to sell in the future the original hardwoods are still underneath and in good condition which could make the home more appealing to some.
