The wiring originally installed that house was designed to run a few light bulbs and perhaps a radio or two (it's not uncommon to find a single circuit per floor or only 2-4 for the entire house) and not to handle today's array of electronics.The house of that vintage, the presence of asbestos in its many forms (pipe and duct wrap for the heating system, possibly mixed in plaster, floor tiles, exterior siding, etc) is a distinct possibility.Where I do not have experience is in local insect damage - I know you have termites and undoubtedly carpenter ants (or a close relation).  

I also recommend staying clear of CFP's  not to begrudge any ones profession but since you are on this site it is clear to me that you are a DIY type.

Here is the best part: New York City evictions, due to anti-landlord policymakers and judges, can take as long as 60-90 days to process, meaning that fines could be anywhere between $70 & $100K...To prevent that from happening we have implemented a zero tolerance policy across our entire portfolio and have been forced to take a MUCH more hands-on approach to managing our buildings, including: Monitoring Airbnb, VRBO, Homeaway and other sites SEVERAL times a day.Periodically knocking on doors of tenants we suspect are illegally subletting.Removing locks/installing keyless entryAmmending leases to allow for impromptu inspections/termination clauses.Has anyone else out there in NYC or SF encountered this issue?

He says replacing the motor would cost about $700-900 and it's not certain that it'll fix the problem, Installing new one would be like $4K with permits etc....The furnace currently installed is:Borg WarnerModel# UK8060-21Serial# 3398 m4It's probably an original heater from 1978 when the duplex was built.

Before we moved into the house in May of '15 we had a water filtration system installed, as it was clear at that time that there were problems with the water, although we didn't yet have the national headlines.It's easy (and a little condescending) to say that the people should just move.

Installation is important, but manufacturer more so.

I I installed a white subway backsplash later, but the attempt was futile.

Unless you say the optionee has no intent to buy, that the purchase is contingent on the buyer's ability to purchase and show there is no intent to buy, our options will be treated as an installment sale if that can apply or as a sale contract.
