Bought my first property! Need help on what's next!
Ok, folks I just decided to DO IT and quit talking about it. I bought the house for 30K and plan to rent it for around 600$ a month but it is need of some serious repairs. What repair do you start with first? The roof had a tree fall onto it, and subsequently the house has water damage and mold. There is alot of information on this site, but thought I would ask a simple step by step on what repairs go before the others. My plan was to start with the roof and the mold because I think that is the main problem, also wouldn't want to repair floors and sheetrock if the roof isn't fixed, right? Just looking for a quick run down of the process and steps to fix it. This property was bought "ASIS" and I paid cash, so there is no inspections, etc. Should I get an inspection, etc? Any help is greatly appreciated.
