Hi all,Does anyone have a plumber/technician they would recommend in the Worcester, MA (Central Massachusetts for more keyword alerts) area who knows how to troubleshoot / maintain the old parlor heaters?

Hey Derrick,Thank you for responding, those are great questions.Short term would be ideal with long term appreciation being the icing on the cake.I think I would need to work with an investor, but I would be open to working on my own if the parameters were right.

Risk adjusted return: Return should be based on the discount buyers get as we buy it and appreciation should be icing on the cake.

I hope everyone enjoys the sub forum and it picks up now that the ice has been broken.  

So I value cash flow more then appreciation because obviously appreciation is speculating and I treat that as icing on the cake as some woudl put it lol. 

I thought it would be a way for me to break the ice and become active here on the site.

But I do specify that I am not responsible for use of existing ice-maker or garbage disposal, that those are currently operable, but it is their responsibility for any repairs if they wish to use them.  

. , becoming an agent has this aura of instant money.Reality throws ice cold water on that. 

I personally couldn't sell ice water to someone dying of thirst.

Nope, not the case.I can assure you the building codes here in California, (assuming work is done with a permit, which most is not) especially Title 24 and seismic / structural requirements, (currently the toughest in the nation) will make your eyes bug out.If you are not familiar with them, they can eat your lunch.I hope new folks really stay motivated if getting involved in flipping homes anywhere really.But pay attention,....you can get creamed.
