I completely agree, my only worry is the cost vs return. I want to do it, what is stopping me is how good of condition the house is already in, hence i paid a little more for it. The other question is where I would put the master, On the first floor with the family room and utility room or on the second floor with the kitchen? I almost feel there are too many options. Im also trying to avoid jack hammering the slab on the first floor. Is 1 bed 1 master upstairs and 1 bed downstairs desirable? This is my first flip so I may not be lost but I also dont know where I am going.

Hello from a first time post. Just picked up a 4 bed 1.5 bath in rural RI. Im going throught my design program trying to think of layouts. The house is in great shape and a quick paint and flooring would make some money but I decided the margin is well worth the full rehab (no mechanical problems at all! Its all cosmetic upgrades). My question for experienced friends on bigger pockets are where to go with the bed and bath. The bread and butter in RI for the younger generation is 3 bed 2 bath. This house has the ability to be a 1) 3 bed 2.5 or 3 bath( With master suite, walk in closet, tile bath ect...) 2) 4 bed 2 bath or 3) leave it a 4 bed 1.5 bath( bathroom is big enough for a shower but is on a slab so jackhammer is needed.)

The 4th bed and the half bath is downstairs on grade si I think adding a shower is a must for it to be a true guest bedroom.

Any input on the best layout for the home that would sell the quickest with added profit is greatly appreciated!
