For example, you want to know if the seller has been doing snow removal for the past winter because one tenant broke his leg, even though snow removal was the tenants' sole responsibility.What issues, if any, have you had with the current and past tenants?

I am going to end up spending 3-4k to get it into good shape for next winter.

I recently bought a two family home and the basement is fully finished without a kitchen but ample space  and I have been recently toying with the idea of renting the basement atleast as a room sharing however being a older home it doesn't have the kind of electrical capacity to accomodate a decent electric stove which has very high amperage requirements (atleast 150 amps -200 amps) besides I am not considering gas stove as an option.As is I can envision fuse tripping beside I don't have any 220 line,also it gets very cold in winter in the basement so I will most likeli need a supplemental heater in the basement so elctric upgrade seems like a must if I decide to rent it out.However I was wondering would it be a better idea to have solar panels to supplement my additional electrical needs? 

Account Closed you should contact Richard Vernet at Winter Hill Bank.

There are no exceptions If approved, you will turn on the utilities and bare all the costs to do so as well as the cost to de winterize and re winterize the property.

Chase has over 800 billion in their servicing portfolio so, I'm sure they can manage the winterizing and property taxes on an REO for a couple of years if necessary.Chase can do whatever they want with the property if they own it.

Anyways, that is the reason I was curious about the idea of a full SUV (Hyundai Santa Fe is what I was looking at, great MPG, very highly rated/reviewed, still ha 5000 lbs. towing capacity, and all wheel drive for winter) and then owning a decent trailer to haul bigger stuff like appliances.With all that info, people still leaning towards just getting a truck?

Plus Northerners are getting fed up with the cold Winters and shoveling snow.

We live in Colorado so we're in the middle of winter right now.

@John Underwood - In Milw - trash and winter snow removal are tied into the water bill.
