Hi BP, i’m curious if anyone has moved an electrical meter without upgrading service. i recently upgraded a meter and was forced to move it to a new location however now i can’t pass inspection because the service enters the building before the meter (only good route to get to new meter was indoors) i really want to avoid a new electrical drophas anyone found a way to enter the building before metering?

The first time we came here was to confirm we wanted it,  post inspection.

When my places with section 8 tenants are inspected yearly the inspectors just want to be sure that the paint isn’t flaking and thereby causing a situation that a small child may ingest the paint chips.

I’ve seen folks panic and act like they’re about to be stuck holding a ticking time bomb, but if you structure the contract properly, give yourself a decent inspection or feasibility period, and understand local investor demand, you’ll rarely end up empty-handed.

if you you ever need inspection services or boats on the ground here in Central texas hit me up!

Each town is a little different, some require you to do a landlord registration and/or will want to do an inspection before you put a tenant in (calling the town would probably be the easiest, or they may have the info right online).

My Hard Money Lenders held the money in escrow and would not release the funds until the work was done, inspected, and they knew it was properly done.

@Francisco PineiroYou could call a few home inspectors in the market you are investing in and see if they do draw inspections so you know the items are correctly done before sending funds

After inspection/appraisal is done, then you do the Padsplit conversion. 5.
