NC also recently re-upped their Historic Tax Credits, so with the combination of NC and Fed tax credit, you can get somewhere in the area of 35-40% of restoration costs back as a credit.

Hello, I hired a restoration company to remediate a mold problem 2 weeks ago but we failed the clearance test.

After all of the advice I have received, my faith in humanity has been restored!

We did get a 3500 sq ft classic at auction & then flipped it to a veteran who completely restored it, including the magnificent ceiling scrolls that were buried under a dropped drywall ceiling complete with the old gas lights of years gone by.

We turned a closet into a bathroom, a study into a bedroom, added a brand new kitchen, refined flooring, opened top the space by cutting out a wall and adding an eating space, handmade radiator covers, restored historic stained glass windows and an epic fireplace! 

The house is salvageable and I am just waiting for my flood insurance to provide a $20k advance to begin restoration.

In ten years, I see myself managing several different properties and using the income from that to restore some of the decrepit beauties throughout the city.From December 2nd until the spring semester starts in the middle of January, I will have lots of free time with no job.

ok so to start off wednesday when i made it home from work at about 630pm i was greeted by a guy from the water company saying that he had to turn off the water to my side of a duplex that a neighbor called and said there was a major water leak and the entire street was flooded. when i got home it was off for about an hour and i was standing ankle deep in my driveway lol but i found out that the lawn company she uses hit the main water pipe with a weed eater and snapped it off then just left and they show up about 10am so it was running for about 7 hours so i know the bill is going to be outrageous. i talked to the landlord today and her only comment was that she cant offer to pay it becuase she didnt do it and then gave me the name and number of the lawn company she contracts to mow all of her properties. so what do i do i mean do i take it out of the rent and she goes after the company for the rest or do i try and talk to the lawn company that she pays to mow and try to get it from them?

They immediately had a restoration company take care of the issue, but then their insurance company denied the claim because the electric was not on.
