My offer got accepted, but during due-diligence, realized that house has sunk at least 2-3 inches on one side... bcz of retaining wall and water drainage issues.  

I currently have a salary job and am looking for a part time job on the side for two reasons: 1.) to inch my savings towards my first investment property and 2.) to gain hands on experience in some aspect of real estate investing.

Service Master determined the cause of the issue was the sewer system being overwhelmed during a recent storm where 2-3 inches fell in an hour.

Good times.A Tampon is not going to clog a 4 inch sewer line if everything is working how it should.

Will also need to come up with a solution for the front door because the stoop is exactly 36 inches wide, which when you use a standard 36 inch door there is no room for the studs on either side or the thickness of the stucco.

Even in down in the flat land of Denver, the bottom of the new footing for the garage will, at a minimum, come within 12 to 18 vertical inches of the existing sewer pipe.

Even commercial pricing is inching down.

Made insurance high for landlord and hard for them to sell off.Saw a Mcdonald's one time where everything was off by a few inches and was 30 years old.

House has major foundation issues along with 2 x 6 floor joists that are over spanned and 24 inches on center. 

I kept it down an inch from ceiling, had electrician put switched receptacle high up, and we put amazon string lights up there for a concealed ceiling light.
