The repair costs for the fixer upper I have a purchase agreement on just keep spiraling upward. I am probably going to give up on this house before the inspection contingency expires. I will meet with two contractors at the house tomorrow to see what they have to say. I figure between $125,000 and $150,000 to fully renovate the house. It will be over $60,000 just to do what needs to be done today.

List of repairs needed:

Complete forced air heating and cooling system needed including ductwork
New water heater and well pressure tank
All new siding, windows, and doors needed minus one door and window
City requires first 100 feet of driveway to be paved
All new interior doors and trim (Many missing or have holes)
Main bathroom needs gut and redo (Toilet and sink missing. Tub doesn't work.)
Master bath needs new faucet
No venting at soffits. Needs new soffits
Deck needs to be torn down for safety
Various electrical repairs needed
All new floor coverings
Need new kitchen, but it does work except faucet
Bay window in kitchen needs replacement
