My plan is to purchase a rehab and rent out the house where we now live. I expect to take stove and washer/dryer with me (They were expensive and I like them) What sort of stove would be appropriate, and is there a benefit to replacing the W/D? (The hook space is for a stackable) The stove is a gas stove, is that usual? or should I put in an electric?

@Sam Valme Thanks for sending me over to the CT list. I'm already subscribed to the podcasts! I got here through an audio book I bought.

Hi All,

At 50 I find myself a beginner in something that has always intrigued me. I love fixing things up. I'm married to an electrician and we have re-done his rehab from top to bottom. Now we find ourselves in need of cash flow and renting this house out and getting another rehab looks like a good plan. Ansonia, Bridgeport, and West Haven seem to have the most rehab properties for sale in our range. (perhaps because they have higher taxes?) My husband is Quite anxious about all this, but he hasn't come up with any better ideas. I have basic financing - but not a rehab loan. I hope to make some connections here, since my long term goal is a string of rental properties. I'm also doing property management for a friend. Good practice for when I have to do it for myself.

Darn it, I'm out of town that week! I often am at the beginning of the month. Will this be a regular date? I can shift my schedule...
