Classic ingroup vs outgroup.  

If you can't take it all the way by getting a gas fired FHA system with central A/C it might not be worth just getting a different boiler system.Radiators aren't bad and if you do some restoration of the classic period features of the old house they can still play off well with that.Unfortunately NOT a clear cut answer on this.

Then with just a couple of k, I might not even buy a book..I have blog on the classics of landlord lit, and they are old and in the library (free) and a bigger pockets blog (by Carson) is up now and has a nice list for beginner investors and those may all be in the library, too, or at least the older editions...that should keep your mind active a few months....then for the future months, just keep learning and saving up for the first property to buy and hold or flip, etc, whatever your chosen strategy...Best of luck 

That is the classical road to bankruptcy!

If you are in a wholesale mode and looking to turn properties quick, then it looks like you have a winner.Either way, it sounds like you made a great buy with multiple options which is the classic definition of a great investment property.Good stuff - Chris

The classic self-help books like Think and Grow Rich (Napoleon Hill) 7 Habits of Highly Effective People (Stephen Covey) How to Win Friends and Influence People (Dale Carnegie) Rich Dad/Poor Dad (Kiyosaki) seem to be pretty popular.

Don't make the classic newbie mistake of mistaking simple for easy.

It is a classic 3 bed 1 bath 1100 sq ft ranch in CT.My concerns are that I am potentially OVER flipping it. 

Vacational rentals, flips, classic buy and hold, Classic BRRR all play well there but nailing the city submarkets there or anywhere they can justify focusing your networking and marketing into it to scale up a full time is where am at now.
