There are some HVAC companies that unless they design the system and it's newer than 5 years, they recommend a whole new system.

You can train them in your systems for when something goes wrong and who to call.

Wear gloves and wear a good mask with a filtration system, not just a paper dust mask.

Here is what I say will have the most impact on your ROI from using a VA to cold call for you:1) You need to plug in the VA into a system that works.

It might help you out if you're a hammer swinger type guy who can produce workmen like quality results versus homeowner DIY results.Someone who has been in this business for awhile , and brings a lot more knowledge , and contacts to the deal we'll have a lot better chance at performing a turn around on the property then to someone who is new and inexperienced. 

Hi BP Family,I am looking to replace a 17 year old AC system in a 1200 sqft townhome in the Kansas City area and I was wondering how much that might cost.

. - if the city water pressure is low in your area you might need a fire pump which could double the cost of your sprinkler system.

I think the worst are the ones that will say they can do something for you or bring something to you then do nothing at all/fail to follow up or stay in touch (lack systems, organizational skills, and actual work to produce).

FHA has the self sufficiency test which also makes 4 units more valuable because you have a better chance of pass the SS test with 4 units versus 3 units. 2 units doesn't require the SS test so buyers also tend to like that inventory for FHA so they can avoid the SS test. 

Specifically will this property require a secondary form of egress and if so, can the architect provide this in building permit  plans and does the change of use trigger the need for an NFPA 13R sprinkler system?
