Are you looking for a good rule of thumb to use when estimating repairs for a wholesale deal?

$10 Sq Ft -  General Cosmetic Work (Paint, Carpet, Small Upgrades)
$15 Sq Ft -  Cosmetic + Upgrades (Paint, Carpet, Kitchen/Bath Upgrades)
$20 Sq Ft -  "Gut Rehab"  (Demo to Studs and Start Over)

Rehab/Materials costs will vary depending on your target market, but this is a great way to get a general feel for rehab costs, till you can get a pro out there to verify.

Remember, most Real Estate Service Companies usually charge around $125 for an Interior BPO and you can get Pest/Termite Inspection for $75.  This is a relatively cheap way to get a great "feel" if you have a deal or not.
