Quote from @John Seybert:

When you are fixing and flipping a house is the garage door something that usually gets changed to a brand new garage door? 


You need to look at comps of what's selling at the price point of the ARV of the project you're looking at. If most of your comps are being sold with new garage doors then you may want to replace it. If most are selling with older garage doors you will get a good idea that buyers aren't being put off by it.

Thanks for your input! 

Me and a friend who grew up together are planning in the next year or so to begin our fix and flip journey. We are both contractors, him being a licensed carpenter and me being a plasterer so we plan on doing a lot of the work ourselves and split profits 50/50. We both work full time but would love to eventually get into flipping full time. We are planning to start our first few properties with cash so we don't get burned on hard money interest payments since it will be after work and weekends we are working on the project. Would love to hear any advise and or stories about your first steps into the real estate investment world and things you wish you could of told yourself when beginning, thanks!
