Property tax, insurance, electric, water hose and shovel, flowers, etc.  

A new cooktop/oven range and slide-in refrigerator is part of this project, as are replacing laminate countertops and installing a new sink and faucet.

I have actually been zapped many times walking past the metal edge on the corners of my walls as the static electricity arced across.

I was out of state on a trip and so my sweet wife was the one handling most of the talking with the Wholesaler.When I still like to browse Roofstock I examine each home property report and statistically, 7 out of 10 homes are having problem with foundation/electric/plumbing.Property inspection helped a lot especially when the inspector is good.Thanks,

Does anyone know of any Smart submeter systems for electric or Rubs recommendations?

The electric range is deeper than you think and has electrical components underneath. 

My boss just decided to deny an applicant who has a Utility Collection (like Water, Electric, and gas), and I'm struggling with my criteria.Any Idea will do.....

I typically provide refrigerator but not washer and dryer.

In reality what happens is you end up paying more for a "clean house" but because you are doing a flip people want new mechanicals (central air, 200 amp electric, pvc plumbing stack) so you end up doing a full gut or larger rehab then simple cosmetics and now your returns have shrunk.In your situation for your first investment I would be ok with a smaller return because of the experience gained, but for the next look for larger profit.

I know based on the Illinois Condo Act, HOA should cover the wall, insulation and electrical.
