It was too far advanced to do surgery/radiation but chemo works to push back the cancer, and it will be 2 years since diagnosis, with no major decline, though it is likely to cause declines in the future.

The radiator lines are already in place, and can be tapped into wherever you need to add additional radiators.

@Christopher Phillips sorry to ask another question if you dont mind, 2 radiators do not warm up although i open the valves, and the other radiators are working fine... is there any insight you may provide?

They seem to think it's a tactic worthy of forming a business strategy around, to me, it's like a radiator shop saying they are in the car repair business, it's a sliver of the business.

The hot water pipes leading from the boiler were leaking in 20 places the inspector could see and as a bonus were wrapped in asbestos.2) There is only one thermostat for the building so the tenants on the top floors often open their windows during the winter because so much heat comes off the radiator, as a result the gas bills (landlord payed) can sometime be more than $3000/month in the winter.3) Some of the electrical panels had been updated but most had not and the wiring was all original fabric coated and would have to be replaced if worked on.4) The roofs needed replaced.I could probably use all of this to get the price much lower but it seemed like just too big a project to take on especially when the numbers were good but not great.Any experiences working with older properties like this?

My duplex has hot water radiators. 

There's no dishwasher, old stove, chipping paint on radiators, broken tile in the bathroom etc.

Same for the radiators if the heating system is a boiler with radiators.

Whether you are liable or not is one thing, but whether or not you'll get sued is another.Fix the fence to minimize your liability, and leave some radiator fluid around to minimize your chances of getting sued (tongue in cheek).

One other thing to watch if your heat is delivered by radiators.
