I have never had to do a full gut on a home yet, mainly just flooring, paint, appliances, and interior work.

I replaced a broken railing mount for the interior stairs because a guest noticed it was cracked.The bottom line is to setup processes for yourself (or handy person/inspector) to go over your rentals a couple of times a year. 

We needed an upgraded 200amp electrical panel ($5-8k), extended water and sewer for the garage ($5k), built out interior ($7k?)

roof replacement, all new floors, new finish plumbing, interior cosmetics, appliances, fixtures, and just knowing the area of town What was the outcome?

I took down every interior wall and completely changed the Floorplan.

There is a $30/stay fee and $5/vehicle registration fee, so you’ll want to either search for value to keep the mortgage low, or better yet, aim for a unique home that you can further spice with interior design.#6 Locust Lake Village - Pocono LakeLocust Lake Village quickly became one of our team’s favorite locations in the Poconos.

I wanted to learn how to build and fix interior construction.

I would get a roofing contractor out there to pull back that roof and start to source the probable, and you'll need to mitigate that issue then move to the interior work to get the drywall/insulation fixed. 

Do you have pictures of the interior of the property? 

The interior and grounds need a major renovation, which I am estimating at around 1MIL.
