- How can I estimate expenses for installing utilities and creating roads, sidewalks, and drainage systems?

I am through module 1 of Kai's course and it is definitely like drinking water out of a fire hydrant.

The HVAC and water heater estimated to be 6 to 8 years old by the inspector.

Adding amenities like power, water, and a barn or pavilion could increase its value as an event space.Farm-to-Table Experiences: If agriculture is possible, create an on-site farm-to-table business where people can visit, harvest, and eat fresh produce.

A home on water?

Because the cost of roofs, ac units, water heaters and so on don’t care if you collect $600/mo in rent or $3,000/mo.  

If you don’t cook, would  you spend money learning how to boil a pot of water on a stove?

I have a great tenant and very few repairs issues (I put in a new HVAC and water heater a year before I moved out) but will eventually need a new roof (house was built in 2005). 

Water/sewer/trash bills are killer in the City and they are ruthless about holding housing providers responsible while letting tenants repeatedly off the hook. 

Most properties are landscaped with water conservation in mind and therefore you don't have the expenses or hassle of maintaining large lawns, high water bills, large tree maintenance, etc.
