We have lived in South Dakota and Iowa.  You can get really nice houses for a great price.  My parents just sold their nice 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom, huge walk-in closets, beautiful woodwork, hardwood floor home for $80,000!!!  They refinished all the floors, and did tons of work on it.  It was gorgeous, and I don't know where else you could find a house like that for such an amazing price.  That was near Yankton, South Dakota.

I have a house cleaning business and I charge by the square foot. I have deep cleans which are done initially to get the house ready for a general clean. I charge 9 cents a square foot for a deep clean and 5 cents a square foot for a general.\n\n A general can be done weekly, bi weekly or monthly. Alot of people who clean houses charge by the hour but you cannot make any real money that way. Never tell the customer how you charge just say I charge by the job which is true. I have been doing this for a while and if you break it down I make between $25-35 an hour sometimes more. \n\nAlso a great thing to get into is office cleaning, it is much easier and you can make more money because even though you still charge by the sq foot you can clean an office quicker than a house.\n\nAnother thing I want to mention is people will call you for a move out clean you can charge 12 cents a sq foot for that because a move out clean consists of inside the appliances and cabinets and stuff. You don't have to do move outs just wanted to throw that in.\n\nYou have to be legit with a license and a company name though for people to pay that kind of money and you really have to know how to clean people are really picky. I hope this helps Good Luck!

Depends on precondition of the surface and local of the wall.\nIf bare concrete, you should first prime the surface, especially if in the basement due to humidity or possible dampness.\nIf an above ground wall, never been painted before about 1gal for 250-300sqft. If painted once before 1 gal for 400sqft. If painted several times, like that of a dorm room, 1 gal for 500sqft.\n\nAlso depends on color and type of paint. High contrasting colors, dark on light or light color on dark, a second coat probably will be needed. Then add 1/2 again as much paint for second coat.

2000 square feet is getting on the larger size.\nA three bedroom, two full bath home that is between 1500-1800 sq ft is the norm. But, it is what you can afford.  If you can afford bigger, go bigger, but talk to your bank and they should ask you about your current bills and they should make the determination on how much home you can afford.\nIt will also help to look at older homes that have been fixed up or are in good shape because a lot of times you will be able to get more house with more room for less, or the same amount of money has a new, smaller house.\nYou always have to look at what is important to your family becuse your needs may change from the house you want. For instance, if you want to be close to schools, grocery store, or have a big yard, you can't get a Penthouse condo.\nResearch realitor websites and read what the listings say and look at the house.  You can usually spot key words like close to schools, quite neighborhood, things like that.\n\nGood luck and happy hunting!

depends entirely on the size of your home, insulation factor and what type of heating you have.\n\nwe have an average home (3 bedroom side split), gas heat and not quite enough insulation. we pay about 1200 or so a year.

charge depending on the size of the house and if you are using your own products.  A flat rate of around $50 is normally good.  Check out some of your competition, call maid services around your area and ask how much they would charge. Don't tell them your plan tho. Use that information to help you find a good price. It's hard to tell you what to charge, it depends on where you live and what the economic situation in your area is. Good luck tho!

In this day and age, anybody can litigate anything, it is often humorous in what is litigated today. Whether they will have a successful lawsuit is iffy. Before they litigate, they must allow you to remedy the problem. If it was not stated that the painting would be done by a licensed and bonded painter, then you have no problem. I would write the new owners a letter, stating that you will be over on a specific date to paint the house. Send the letter return receipt requested. Then be there on that stated date and just finish the job as professionally as you can. I would also have witness's/helpers go along. I would photograph the start and completed job. I would also have another letter pre-typed, releasing liability for not completing the paint job in case she asks you to leave the property for not bending to her whims on the choice of paint she picked out. But, your best bet is to talk to an attorney, most don't charge for inital consultations, talk to one and get direction. Best of Luck

You can use the figure (just an estimate) of about $100 a square foot (bathrooms are a little more).   May be more or less depending on the reputation of your builder and the region of the country you live in.

It depends on where the actual Home Depot is.  I know that the pay rate is higher in the Bay Area than in the Sacramento area.  I believe it ranges between $12-$18 per hour, depending on experience, etc.

I would recommend one of the following programs, all costing under $100.  Which you choose will depend on how you expect to use it.  All four programs have free trials you can download and use for 30 days, so I would suggest doing so, to see which best suits your needs and personal style.\n\nAdobe Photoshop Elements 5 at http://www.adobe.com\nCorel Paint Shop Pro XI and\nCorel Painter Essentials 3  both at http://www.corel.com\nPhotoImpact 11 at http://www.ulead.com/pi/runme.htm\n\nOf the above, Paint Shop Pro will be most like Photoshop in potential and capability, but it may not be the one that most suits your own needs.\n\n\nThere are a number of free programs available, but none will be as capable as the above programs.  However, they might do what you need to, depending on what that is.  Linked below are several of the free programs available.\n\nhttp://wang.zhenzhou.googlepages.com/\nhttp://www.photobie.com/\nhttp://picasa.google.com/index.html\nhttp://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/PaintNET/1096481993/1\nhttp://www.plasticbugs.com/index.php?p=241\nhttp://www.freeserifsoftware.com/software/PhotoPlus/\nhttp://www.photofiltre.com\nhttp://park18.wakwak.com/~pixia/\nhttp://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/Project_Dogwaffle/dogwaffle.html
