Bed bugs, evictions, people stealing copper, all that crap that comes with investing there. 

Once the interior was stripped and the infrastructure tested, I brought in commercial contractors to handle critical systems like plumbing, electrical, roofing, and HVAC installation.The house, built in the early 1900s, was originally a coal-burning residence.

If you have the electrical capacity and the drain I would spend the $1600-$1,800 to buy the MUCH nicer ventless GE or LG all in one units.

Told him I have a rule never east anything out of a frig with the electric off for 6 years!

Purchase price: $630,000 Cash invested: $120,000 Gutted this property, brand new electrical, furnace, propane, finished basement to create separate unit.New garage with rental unit.

Talk with Bridgett.I ended up going new as I didn't want to be possibly bringing in bugs to a renovated property.

Water is shut off and they are removing the electrical meter.

I assumed that when I said I needed to rehab the kitchen, I didn't need to remind the contractor that we needed electrical outlets.

- We had 2 break-in & furnace & HWH thefts there this year:(File a claim ASAP, you'll need:1) Utility bills to prove electric & gas were on2) A police report, proving a break-in3) Pics/video to prove the condition of the property to support theft claimWhat are you doing to mitigate additional damages?

Kitchen cabinet handles were placed upside down, cabinet doors were installed backwards, electrical line for thermostat was ran on the inside of the bedroom exposed, trash swept into newly installs vents from the furnace, cracked tub, wall switches were installed sideways in some rooms, wall outlets were installed upside down on some walls, list goes on.
