The inspector pointed out structural issues, potential plumbing issues (hard to confirm since the water was not on but scary enough) since the house was built in the early 1900's.  

But, most BPers either aren’t interested in, or like me have no talent for doing the carpentry, electrical work, plumbing, etc. in renovating a house.  

Pretty much all major components were newly installed / fitted and done to a tasteful standard (new metal roof, plumbing, electrical, kitchen, flooring, bathroom, doors, new hvac, decks, vinyl siding etc) and I have visited and walked through 3 times and even been under crawl space to inspect a repair that was previously noted on an inspection to the foundation after termite treatment which looked to be a good job.

Hey BP family,Know of any good GCs, or specialty trades [flooring, plumbing, electrical, etc.] in  Toledo? 

If the fixes are cosmetic or minor, that’s a big plus, but if there are larger repairs (roof, plumbing, etc.), ensure you budget for those.

Older buildings with older systems: plumbing, electric, HVAC, roof, tend to have more maintenance costs than newer properties.  

What type of plumbing pipe is in the house - galvanized steel corrodes from the outside in, lead pipes may have been common back then.

Replacing cast-iron piping can be costly and labor-intensive, and while the mixed plumbing indicates previous updates, you might want to get an estimate from a plumber to understand the full scope and cost of replacing all cast-iron pipes with PVC.
