When buying an older property when to upgrade components
I am looking at a 2 family that poses to have some good potential cash flow. I seem to be getting hung up on the level of upgrades necessary. The electrical panel is listed as fuses. I have to assume the entire electrical system needs to be upgraded or does it? When would you upgrade an electrical system? A plumbing system? I have attached a picture of the property. The siding is asbestos. When should that be upgraded? The rest of the properties on the street are in better overall appearance and condition.
