plumbing and heating lines in foundation

[Eric Winters]

Just curious if anyone has any experience with this. I have heard it is a nightmare from neighbors. Looking to flip a couple in a neighborhood with this. Pretty new to the forum as well. Anything is greatly appreciated

If they are copper pipes exposed to concrete then yes, it will become a nightmare at some point. The pipes will eventually weaken and begin to leak. In my experience, once they begin leaking in one place, it's usually just a short period of time before they are leaking in multiple places and need to be abandoned.
