Hi BiggerPockets Community! We could really use your expertise. My wife and I are looking to purchase our 3rd property and want to take something on that needs a little fixing. We plan to live whatever house for about a year or two while we make renovations/upgrades then rent it out/refinance/repeat.
We have found a beautiful 3/2 in Tampa FL in an up in coming area, but it was originally built in 1925... It has a 5 year old roof, brand new A/C, newly done electrical, and has been modestly remodeled on the inside (Kitchen, painting, bathroom tiles). The floors have been redone, it has a fireplace, and the patio/front porch could use some work - but everything appears okay from walking around it. It is slightly raised off the ground. We definitely need an inspector but also wanted to pick your brains!
What should we be watching for or looking out for? I feel that the inspection will tell us a lot more about the foundation, plumbing, etc., but does anyone have any experience, helpful insights, or advice they could provide??
Thank you so much!
