Lost another one to some yahoo who bid against me and included floor prep in his bid with carpet covering the floor. He was lowest bidder and also included free furniture (house was packed) and also replacement (R&R) of tile in the entry plus fireplace hearth (on floor and surrounding fireplace).
What bugs me most is all inclusive floor prep. My analogy for the consumer who is a mortgage broker is this; "Quoting floor prep without seeing the substrate is akin to writing up a mortgage for a house that has not had an appraisal eg; never seen."
