Thank you would it cost more then 200,000 to just do the basics like, insulation, electric, roof and plumbing?

Weather became a challenge, Portland had a huge ice storm in January when all my plumbing and electrical was going in.

The pain is removing all HVAC, plumbing & electrical so you can sister or replace a beam or joist and then put them all back in.

Quote from @Branden Rivero: The issue I see is the building is close to 100 years old and with a $500 hoa it's not an easy sale for an investor Yes, thats true however all expenses the past year increase insurance, sewer, trash, electric and cleaning service.

(sigh)-> R22 is/was a good refrigerant ... sad to see that it's gotten pushed "out."

While we lean heavily on the pro's  for repairs and estimates it makes it much easier when we know the typical issues and concerns on the plumbing, roof, electrical etc sides of a property. 

I was thinking I would create a course that involves a field trip to one of the flips I am working and pointing out all of the things they should catch and helping them understand rehab costs at a line item level.I am an expert in electrical and learned plumbing in the Coast Guard.

The duplex itself is a disaster it is a 3/1 and 3/1.5 vandals got in when it was vacant and cut pipes and electrical basically would need to be gutted and probably over 100k in renovations.  

Does each unit have a separate gas and electric meter? 

I recently had an electrical panel that needed to be replaced that the inspector missed which ended up being $1,100.
