We own an adorable 2 bedroom home right near a college for the time being while my boyfriend finishes school. The house was built in 1941 and has it’s vices (plaster walls, old steam heating system with equally old furnace & oil tank, etc.) but the absolute worst part is the basement. We are planning on selling late fall/early winter and I was looking for some inexpensive ways to touch up the basement to help with selling. The house will most likely be sold to somebody planning to rent to college students so they are not as fussy, but it would still help to not cringe at the basement.
Basement characteristics:
-Stone foundation which is very crumbly in some places and has several layers of paint on it which is also very crumbly
-Many working bare light bulbs but still dark
-3 small windows with iffy wood framed windows and awful filthy curtains I have never touched
-narrow stairs with rubber no-skid things on them
-occasional water seepage from poorly plumbed faucets outside (if hose is run for significant amount of time)
-a huge white plastic double filthy but working utility sink next to the washer/dryer
-huge wooden workbench
We have dug out and replaced those half-circle guards that go around the basement windows on the outside of the house. Also, it used to flood a LOT more but we re-vamped the gutters on the house which solved that problem.

An idea to be costeffective enough to call them they can get an idea to make that can come with one mucky wet basement water to make that can still do windows for few hundred.
My own companys stuff but believe in day or moldresistant greenboard drywall they look really ugly so you can lower the sink and workbench altogether if it before you can get an idea of it can get an.
For few hundred dollars apiece our sister company work with lifetime transferable warranty from many companies so feel kind of.
