Rehabbing Fire Damaged Property

I am looking at a fire damaged property. It has been taken down to the studs. Any one have experience with getting the odor out of the house. What products have you used to do this, out side of hiring someone?

Thank you in advance for your feed back.

    If the margin is there, just hire someone, it is difficult, dirty, tiring work, and almost never worth the time it would take you to do it yourself.

    What is your time worth?

    Also, need to take a look at electrical wiring, the insulation of the wire properly has few cracks, the insulation is plastic, and the fire heat damaged the insulation. intermittent electrical short/issue will show up in later months.

    the wiring and the plumbing needs to be replaced. It melted the outlet boxes and all the plumbing connections. It is a VA house and the comps run around 200 to 212 and they are asking 79000. So there is room to fix these and still make some money. I am going to offer less and see what happens,

    BINZ PRIMER IS GOOD FOR THAT...BETTER THAN KILLZ IN MY OPINION.
