I worked as a wall panel framer for this company in town for about 3 months, but have recently left because I wanted to get jobs more involved in the real estate industry to learn about it first hand.I currently have a job working in the entertainment business as a staging techn and backline tech.

Solar panels can add up, depending on how big the systems is and how it's designed.I have one (owned, not leased) on a barn 300' from my house.  48 panels, 13 KWp. 

However, it will always be limited by its size, its lack of good closet space, etc.One issue that is odd to me is that the electrical panel is on the wall in the kitchen.  

Does each unit have its own breaker panel at least?

She is having her electrician give her a quote on upgrading the panel and a roofer inspect the roof to see if it has 5 years remaining. 

Electrical Panel Mess!

The carpet would need replaced, some wall paneling replaced with sheetrock, and one of the bathrooms needs redone...it is actually already stripped down and was in the process of being fixed by the owner.

This one has wood paneling and drop ceiling tiles throughout the entire house (about 1500 sf - 2 story 3 bed 1 bath). 

One of the splits was a much larger unit (I believe 36000 BTU) that required a panel swap) to accommodate a 4BR/2 Ba SFH.  

I’ve put all my focus on building by solar energy business, and now that I have capital to buy my first investment property I am left with uncertainty, should I wait until the market “crashes” to buy cheap?
