Even better, a property that simply would not have sold for anything, but at a fire sale price suddenly becomes marketable. Had we just flipped as is, our investor friend would have worked that prehab weekend and earned that quick profit for himself. That Pays Off Inside, it s more addition by subtraction. Anything that subtracts from the property s value, I want it out of there. Again, the previous owner s junk.
Old drapes go right on the trash pile too.
The idea here is to get rid of virtually everything that might somehow detract. Most people don t really get off on having to go through the previous owner s garbage, so get it all out of there. Sometimes they leave old furniture or shelves in the garage or some things that really aren t halfway bad. Sometimes the stove and refrigerator are a little on the beat up and dirty side but are still serviceable. Forget em . . .
