All units are cleaned well and some updates have been made to paint, flooring, bathroom fixtures, and 4 new windows.Here are the negatives: No central heating or air, built in 1946, the duplex is metered together & costs approximately $150 per month, there are small waves in the flooring in 1 of the bedrooms, no stove or other appliances yet added.My thoughts: Some of the numbers seem too good to be true but at the same time I can't help but see big rehab numbers if I need to get HVAC and ducts installed (this makes me the most nervous).

Didn't work very well, and it was ugly inside the house.We live in a condo that we rent out whenever we do long-term travel, so I thought...what if I install a really nice outdoor antenna in the attic or on the roof, wire it into the house to a dedicated coax outlet in the wall, and just make it a permanent fixture of the house?

Amazon Ebay.. all the time..I am talking furnaces, hot water tanks, lumber, light fixtures, drywall, siding...where you expecting to hear something different? 

We painted the whole house, trimmed a ton of tree off the house, Power washed whole house, replaced all fixtures and tuned up AC.

I recently purchased a house in Hamilton, Ontario.Going to convert single (bungalow) to duplex.Would it be possible to advise if there is anything in below that you think is unnecessary for our investment purpose:Ground Floor:- Has all original items but painted- existing old wood floor (narrow wd strips)- existing laminate countertop with old painted cabinets- existing painted base boards- washrooms fixtures are working fine - painted old vanity cabinetShould I leave all items above leave as is?

Are we talking about a leaking pipe/fixture or a foundation leak?

Also ended up replacing exterior doors and lots of little things too (light fixtures, blinds, etc)All in all was a great investment.

Since we would create a long-term lease (one year or more) and no additional contracts will be created, this would not violate Virginia Beach or Norfolk's new Short Term Rental regulations and would not require a CUP.

I have installed floors, wired fixtures, mixed and poured concrete, installed roofing material, cut tile, installed siding and more. 

Interior updated some electrical, fixtures, appliances, patched walls, replaced some doors and repainted the entire interior.
