A lot of the 2-4 unit properties in Cicero are due for a service upgrade, new panels and many of them also are full of cloth wiring that needs to be removed.

Outside of that I have a small section of the exterior that is wood paneling that needs repainted, the majority of the exterior is brick or stone and in fine shape.I was planning on finishing up the remaining work and selling this coming summer, but have just gotten engaged and will be needing a bigger house.

I also give them a detailed 11"x17" floor plan with dimensions of each wall that they may need to plan out furniture placements, as well as locations of switched receptacles, cable outlets to plan where to put floor lamps, mount TVs etc...At key handover I give them more detailed package including a list of appliance models and serial numbers, a detailed electrical panel schedule, city mosquito control number, garbage collection schedule for regular waste, recycle waste, yard waste and bulk trash, smoke alarm batteries, storage shed padlocks, location of the secret switch to opens the swinging bookshelf that reveals two more bedrooms.
