It has some faulty wiring and needs a little masonry work. 

By the sound of it, the property will need a porch repair, masonry work, landscaping, and windows.

I would have a couple of local masonry contractors give me a quote for the repair  work.

Call some concrete companies or masonry companies in your area if your trying to put a Band-Aid on it.

If you have any experiences or references it would be greatly appreciated if you share it, hopefully, this discussion can answer someone else's question when they browse the forums in the future.I found a 3 bed 2 bath 1870sqft manufactured home with a masonry foundation on a 10000 sqft lot.

Looks like the city has backed-off their crusade against unreinforced masonry construction (for now) so hoping that helps remove pressure from other segments of housing as well (I had prospective tenants asking about earthquake retrofitting in a rental I own built in 2004). 

I use concrete board inside the wood frames of metal chimney rehabs and masonry caulk sealing off the inside from any wood, just in case.

J Scott when you install a new fireplace do you use a local masonry or special fireplace installer or do your subs do it?

After listening to many real estate pod cast by BiggerPockets, I’ve become a big fan and I’m convinced this is the perfect place to get started.Over the years I have acquired various skills including construction, excavation & equipment operation, masonry, mechanics, spreadsheets, communications, and office management.My strengths however are in planning/creating consistent & standardized workflow as well as excellent communication and networking skills.I'm a "Go-Getter" and I recently transitioned to a stay at home dad due to a concussion injury.

Whether it be HVAC, basic carpentry, plumbing, tile/masonry, etc.....I have a good deal of experience with electrical work and basic framing, demolition work.
