I have a cabinet guy but did not use him this time.I hate that window.  

We're having an Electrician, HVAC, Asbestos removal, Window guy and Plumber come out to do inspections and give us work bids before our full acceptance date. 

Other than, some new windows and staircase bannister, no upgrades have been done since the 1940.    

So if you get outbid for a property and you are past your 45 day window the IRS's attitude is that you can still buy that property - just from a different owner.There is no penalty for not completing a successful 1031 exchange.

I’m buying a 3 bedroom 1 bath single family home... it has a new steel roof but needs windows.

They have changed out some of the windows and carpet, and painted it on the inside.

Electricity bill is fairly high - each unit has window AC units (some units have 2).

New siding and windows and painting exterior and interior (trying to decide on replacing carpet or removing the carpet for a renter friendly idea), fencing replacing broken garage door and some landscaping. quite alot of hours and Im doing all the work myself which is adding up.

Went over to a rental property today to work on a leaking basement window.

This enables you to refinance before the six month window.
