You could have a 120-year-old property that owner pays Gas electric and water, and the property is constantly needing major repairs.

There are a lot of areas that allow work on your own owner-occupied home, but if you are working on a rental, flip, or similar non-owner-occupied house, you need to have licensed tradesmen do plumbing, electrical, etc.Ran into this issue while flipping a house in a small town in NJ.  

I would do the plumbing, electrical, kitchen and bathroom finishes, flooring etc.
