And in a jetted tub, some water remains in the lines; see link here:http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/cleaning/msg0723031624265.htmlWinterized houses usually have had all the utilities shut off, so the fuel source for the water heater and heating system might need to be turned on.All of the above (including Roy's list) seem very much within the grasp of a DIY type of person ...Edit: should maybe add that wells and septic systems might need some attention too.

Has a close texture to wood, although I think there's still room for improvement texture-wise.

By that, I mean your decisions have been based on a journey through life and not a journey to personal jets and fancy hats.

The plumber quoted $900 to jet it out, or $3500 to dig up and replace the pipe.I see there are chemical root treatment options for this that is much cheaper.  

I've never owned own of these jetted tubs, but I have owned a spa and a pool, and they are maintenance intensive.

Scraped popcorn ceilings, sprayed and painted the new knockdown texture, new electrical outlets everywhere, added Alumiconns to all electrical because of aluminum wiring, Found Offerup deals on fans/furniture, LED light fixtures everywhere, Patched drywall in every room in the house, sprayed new orange peel texture, painted every wall, new water valves in the house, new kitchen sink, new dishwasher, new real wood vanities in both baths, new granite countertops with new sinks and faucets, new ba What was the outcome?

I thought about doing the interior paint myself but it would've looked terrible and I wouldn't have smoothed out the textured walls. 

My way doesn’t pay for private jets but that wasn’t the goal.

I also get a free lake house to use wile I'm doing maintenance and where I keep my boat and jet skiis and also make some money pretty much equal to one one of my long term rentals.

Monthly costs: garbage is usually part of taxes unless you have commercial, figure $600/year snow plow and lawn maintenance (I never have tenants do it in multi unit, they always fail), another $800/year for sewer jetting/cleanouts, pest control $300/year.
