Before everyone has a go at me for asking a huge question please be aware I know this and I just want to put it out there to see what advice/ideas/suggestions I can get. So here goes:
I have found a piece of land that has subdivision potential and a house on it. It's cheap. I can afford it and I can (I think) afford to renovate and then hopefully subdivide and use the equity to then go on and build on the new block.
The house looked bad in the photos. It looks worse in real life (no surprises there).
I have done one cosmetic renovation in another state which I just basically picked the colour schemes/materials and paid for, I also built my own house using a builder so I have a basic understanding of how a house fits together.
In my opinion after visually checking this house requires more than a cosmetic reno. It needs new guttering, new eaves, at least 2 new windows (if not more). New bathroom (toilet is brand new!), new kitchen including new shelves in WIP, new architraves, new skirtings, new lighting, removal of 70's d?cor (mirror wall and timber veneer wall), new floor coverings, painting, removal of at least one robe if not 2-3.
So my question is for a small 100sqm 1970's home in Adelaide how much will this cost without me doing anything ie. using all tradies? I'm going to assume that there are no termites or major structural damage because if there are I won't be purchasing it?
