I'd like to hear how your creative financing worked out. Let's

Signs that things were askew included 4" wall tiles on the bathroom floor, no GFCI outlets, and ceramic tile over plywood in the kitchen.

So during each unit rehab I have upgraded 90% of the wiring as I discovered there were many overloaded circuits that had heat damage to the insulation at some of the outlets & especially the light fixtures.

I also replaced all of the outlets and light switches throughout the house.

Weighing if that's the right next move.My wife Rachel has an IT background so we are constantly churning out ideas for a more technology focused venture.I've been more active in marketing accilliary services, such as tree trimming using my bucket truck as an outlet to take my mind out of the RE grind while evaluating other opportunitiesInvolving my wife in everything in a weird way is about diversifying, because we can parallel process and perhaps go as much as 2x faster when we judge it another good time to start buying. 

The realtor is really pushing for us to get a licensed inspector for negotiations, but me and my father both feel very confident the home is in great shape and nothing major will come from the inspect other then maybe a electric outlet having to be swapped out maybe or something of that sort, he’s so confident he said he would cover my 1,000 deposit if we had to back out of the deal if something big came up they were not willing to cover.Should I just pay up the 500 for the inspection and 130 for radon test or just have my dad do it.Thanks everyone!

Don't get cheap toiletsDon't get cheap outlets and switches Don't get cheap pvc down spouts if you can get mental of that route Don't get cheap paintAnd I tend to wrap all my exposed sewage plumbing joints now in the plumbers wrap, never a call for a leak. 

See what comes out. Let

It had old styles and worn, but liveable with new carpet, but we have redone everything (kitchen, bath, doors, hardwood floor, all light fixtures and outlets, and finished basement).
