I missed a house selling in Natomas for $200k in a $500k neighborhood and all it needed was 50k in updates and that loss lit fire under me to contract work out for faster turn around times.

Upgrade lighting if there's any dimly lit areas, install ceiling fans in all bedrooms, replace toilet if its old, new locks on all exterior doors keyed alike, new numbers on mailbox if the other ones are ratty, make sure everything works, no faucets drip, smoke alarms all working and in all the places they're supposed to be.

My name is Jason and I recently found the BP podcast , forum, and community and from listening to 20 + podcast i had a fire lit under me to invest in commercial real estate .

On my first purchase (personal home) inspector went to the water heater and it wasn't lit and inspector didn't even try to light it, so he just checked the box as 'needs addressed' and moved on.The only other time I had an inspection on a purchase: inspector noted a few missing shingles with no more comments other than missing. 

The landlord was outside, and she said she'd lit candles in the main part of the house, then went down into the basement, leaving the candles unattended, and that was what caused the fire.

Now that this has happened, DR looks pretty good in his light. however, I love to dance with the devil in the dim moonlight, so I watch and learn, to pounce on things when the gates of life open again! 

Hey @Sri L. It

Now the lights start dimming because more power is being drawn than what's available.I don't think use from one unit would trip breakers in another, unless the wiring was really wonky.
