HVAC, pluming, flooring, paint, electrical, etc).  

Hi @Allende Hernandez, I flip about 3 houses per month and I give consulting to several investors, so just my guess I am in California with out any idea of the cost of labor in Jacksonville ill have to say, for 864 mid level finish I supposed you want, I cant see the kitchen but lets say everything is crap in it. lets say the mayor things will be.1) kitchen 2,000 to 3,100 with appliances.2) flooring 8003) paint 750 4) exterior 1,000 5) bathroom 1,300 and lets hope it doesn't have roof and pluming damage so lets just guess 6,500-8,000 worst case scenario 12,000 I am usually 95% accurate in guessing I always wish there was a way to make money just buy guessing stuff lol. hope is helpfull

Hi @Brian Compton Yes it sounds like something is fishi to me it might be to good of a deal. 1) Get a contractor and check the major repair problems, roof, pluming and structure you don't want to get into a problem like that. 2) are you gonna flip check how the market is in your area why is it been in market for months3) if you have any questions feel free to ask 

So things I have ran into during my years of owning a pluming company. 

I have plumed many houses so this stuff is like child's play to me.  

So, our Maintenance man went over to do the work.What we didn't know until the fee incurred is that they called a pluming company out.

Which was Bathroom , upstairs, fixed all the pluming upgaded the upstairs, Redid the kitchen and main room, added a bathroom in the basement and added a new laundry room.

The cosmetic renovations are the easy part, the part you really need to understand during due diligence is what systems you need to modify and update-pluming, electrical, structural, roof. 

@Maurice Stewart You will need two different contractors, one to separate the pluming in the house (think local licensed plumber) and a second plumbing utility contractor to install the meter on behalf of the SWBNO (they no longer do this).  

and just to be clear, the boundaries of a federal superfund site are determined by how far the contamination has migrated and is not necessarily limited to the source of the contamination. there can be groundwater plumes that can extend for several miles so that all of the properties sitting above the zone of contamination would be considered to be located within the superfund site but that are not responsible for the contamination but simply impacted. very different calculus than if the parcel you are considering is a source of the contamination
