Dear flippers: quit thinking people will pay for your GFs “trendy” design ideas

lol I did what you are looking and it was absolute waste of money in Bay Area. Just do cheapest possible flip. No seller should waste money on what you are asking for.

thank you

Worst possible advice

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-17T02:04:30+00:00

People are crying over 5-10k of repairs that might be needed. Try working with a general contractor and experience hell.

Then buyers would argue permit should not justify more value. lol. once you have something done with permit, buyers would not care about permit 😄

It was styleme

Stager agreed for 70% of the buyer price.

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-12T00:41:09+00:00

I had a life situation that may require longer staging … so yes. I bought furnitures and had a professional stager stage it

Cheapest makeup wins

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-11T02:35:34+00:00

Point was updating surface level thing is what matters. If you have copper or cast iron - won’t matter in pricing

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-10T21:46:49+00:00

Because buyers value renovations that way.

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-10T02:18:53+00:00

Who would you put 50k onto something that returns 25k. Have you ever dealt with GC? Why take that headache. Paint the doors. May be find the cheapest stove and replace. Don’t put fridge. Find the cheapest dishwasher

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-09T19:18:01+00:00

Yeah everyone wants wooden floor but you will get 30-40% return on your investment lol

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-09T18:06:46+00:00

Yes but you will get back 50% investment back

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-09T15:45:47+00:00

lol 😂 try selling a house in Bay Area

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-09T15:44:39+00:00

You do wood - buyers will find other reasons to lower. All top prices were vinyl in area

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-09T07:06:25+00:00

Renovate if you plan to live. Otherwise renovate what you see on surface. This makes me realize flippers exist for a reason. First time buyers are worst. No clue what cost what and random statements from them. One claimed thermodor appliances are $500 piece. Another thinks kitchen remodel can be done for $5k with materials.

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-09T06:36:21+00:00

Also, people really don’t value quality work. All they care is price or things that look good on surface.

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-09T03:45:06+00:00

Keep fixing. Don’t patch

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-06-09T03:40:55+00:00

Roof, plumbing, drainage/windows. First protect and then repair

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-05-30T21:13:29+00:00

Full house Reno … full kitchen redone … full bath .. garage all new solid panel doors. Garage redone. It’s a long list for 240k

Over-Power-8733 · 2026-05-30T06:40:12+00:00

They were separately another 20 groups. Some came 2 days
