Have you wondered where the housing market is going in South Eastern North Carolina?

I am located in south eastern Wisconsin (Kenosha County).

I'm on BP as well as part of Brew City REI (based out of Milwaukee) and the Apartment Association of Southeastern Wisconsin (AASEW).

There is currently a very nasty "accent" panel of plywood on half of the front of the home, but the rest is aluminum siding.

Looking for deals in the VA and NC areas along with GA (southeastern US). 

. ($250)If he does plumbing, a lightweight aluminum monkey wrench (cheap option) ($30)If he does drywall, a RotoZip tool and some bits. ($50)If he's more on the small projects side, a Dremel rotary tool with a lot of accessories. ($100)If he's been doing this for a long time and does all sorts of stuff, a Fein Multimaster kit. ($300)If he tends to work alone most of the time, a Rockwell Jawhorse. ($200)If he has a 10-inch table saw, and most of us do, a Freud thin-kerf combination blade. ($80)If he messes around at all with granite or marble slab, a Makita wet stone polisher ($300)If he does wood flooring, pneumatic Bostich Mark IIIFN (Flooring Nailer) ($350)For that matter,the right 16-gauge manual nailer (Bostich MFN-201) ($220)Any sort of roofing, buy him a heavy-duty climbing harness ($100)Good sized air compressor for woodworking and painting ($200)If he does tile, he likely has a big 10-inch tile saw with a sliding table, but he'll still appreciate a more mobile Ridgid 7-inch saw of the same basic design.

@Nabil A.I would double check the type of wiring they used aluminum wire or knob and tube for very old properties were and it can be hard to get insurance and if you can it may be expensive.

I just had a fix & flip rewired from top to bottom (it was old aluminum wire) and had copper put in.

We are actually in Southeastern area, and this deal truly is unusual and that’s why I am interested but proceeding with caution.
