She planned to leave that small house, put a little work into it, and having it serve as a separate mother in law suite in addition to the newly constructed main house.So far, the first acre has a septic tank, well, and a foundation built.

(water in toilets, tanks, and bowels from leaking sinks) I am using this as a point of negotiation with the seller to get a significant reduction in price due to this.

The risks are skewed in development with so much that could go wrong (rezoning/permits process, construction, slow sales, tanking market, etc.) and the upside rarely justifies it when compared to buying existing.

(The tank in back will pry be empty too.) if it does still moves at least you eliminated them from the cause.

Then again when away on vacation I did get smoked by another HVAC company for $2300 to replace a 40gall electric HW tank with a new dedicated circuit to the panel.

Environmental concerns - manufacturing, underground storage tanks, etc.Was there an active bankruptcy case for the owner when the sale occurred that could void the sale?

Last house we bought as primary now has conventional water heaters with tanks.

And when the economy tanks, my properties are in higher demand because not as many people can afford A and B class rentals to stay at.
