an inspector will tell you everything wrong with a property, from the minor to the major. so if the inspection report finds a bunch of electrical issues, yes, you'd need an electrician to tell you whether they are $200 fixes or $2000. 

You get the benefit of the depreciation and most of the bugs and recalls ar worked out.Let her "enjoy and reward herself" by buying a property. 

Electric baseboard is expensive and takes a while to warm up so on and off doesn't work.

My friend said his client nearly bailed when she found unexpected wiring issues behind the kitchen walls..apparantly the seller hadn’t touched that electrical since the Reagan era..but with a patient electrician who understood the local code and a carpenter who improvised a shelving trick in the diningrom, they ended up selling above asking.Flipping and building can get tricky, especially once you start thinking bigger.

And people who claim $0 investment must not have an electric bill like mine was.

I plan on taking some introductory classes for plumbing + electrical + carpentry + ???

I caught the real estate bug back in 2017 from my Uncle who has been teaching me and mentoring me ever since.

Effective December 1, 2024, ownership of the property has been transferred from Michael Anderson to Electric Sage Brush, a limited liability company.All terms and conditions of this lease agreement remain in full effect, and all payments, notices, and correspondence should henceforth be directed to Electric Sage Brush LLC at the following address:2001 Space Odyssey Dr, Cody, WY 82414This change in ownership does not affect the tenant’s rights or obligations under the lease agreement.All parties sign to confirm the change.

I suggested to them we could split the costs 50/50 of installing the electric, the garbage disposal, and the labor for installing it as I would be more comfortable having my guy do it.

Given this is where my major operating expenses fell (beyond taxes and insurance), keeping this cost lower, by average, helps my cash flow.I invest in older neighborhoods, so the 2-4 unit properties, typically have single water meter, maybe single electric, and many have radiator heat with a single boiler.
