You do that extensive of a remodel your tax will most likely double.

Unless the previous landlord did some major remodeling you have your work cut out for you!

Once the two largest units are vacant, I plan on remodeling the kitchens and including a W&D combo.

Hello - I have ties to Cali myself, I'll be in La 4/2-9 lol - I am a realtor and investor here in Indy, I also do property management, home remodels/flips, and more.

In preparation for requesting bids, I have gathered (Googled) some estimate costs for the scope of work I believe will need to completed to raise the value of the property to align with recent comps; however, after checking reviews on Angie's list of local contractors, it became clear that many of the reviews that I was seeing were from happy homeowners who didn't mind spending an arm and a leg for a kitchen remodel that they would be enjoying.

We did flooring, painted throughout, painted kitchen cabinets, minor remodel of the bathroom, bought a baller fridge, and built a 6' wood fence around the backyard.I've lived here since middle of December.

Mine includes roof, floors, hvac, appliances, hot water heater, bath remodel, and kitchen remodel, etc.

When I first purchased and remodeled it was at a little higher standard then most in that area because I could see it was changing.

Were the any remodels in which pipes, electric, windows or other contributing factors were repaired/replaced?
