Plumbing, electrical, heating, and air conditioning systems 4.

(Roof, plumbing, electrical, AC unit, etc).

Take you time and be sure everything is level and plumb and fits tightly.

Some patients (called "clients") need oxygen, so tear out the walls and use stainless approved plumbing and all the fittings to hook that up, you'll be a hundred grand on your way to your budget limit, but you might get luck there depending on what clients you can accept.

The house was built in 1959 and needs to have new electrical, plumbing and A/C.I want this property, as it is in a very desireable neighborhood, and I can fix it up for less than $50,000.

Tia,Based on the information provided I don't see how this work can be completed for your $30K estimate.If the second floor is burned out... you may be faced with replacing all of the rafters and roof, certainly all of the wiring throughout the house, most of the plumbing depending where the bath is on the second floor... plus all of the drywall from the smoke/water damage in the rest of the house.I have some experience in fire damaged properties... and I can tell you that when I did my first one which I didn't think was that bad... my estimate of $23K was off by 130 percent.

There is also an extensive forum thread here on BP on using Pex for plumbing, it expands when water freezes, helping to prevent breaks.

If a legit problem that was big (electrical, plumbing, pool, AC, foundation, etc) came up, I would totally go back to re-negotiate.

The HUD inspection report looked favorable but after the house set on the market for almost a year, I found out that the roof needed replacement, the plumbing had to be completely redone, the septic tank was bad, A deck was unsafe and had to be removed.

You need to find out who takes care of the common area plumbing, for instance, between the units, and above and below...You NEED to find out for absolutely sure that there are no other liens on this property--other than the hoa dues, and that no fines or back dues are owed.
