I’ve since asked for further clarification but I have two major concerns. 1.) the 2 ton HVAC condensing unit is inoperable. 2.) their is a 100 amp sub panel only being supplied with 50 amps.

Price gains are leaving buyers on the sidelines as they are blocked by affordability and limited supply as new listings for the month down 6.67% from last June, chocking supply and forcing prices up as more buyers are competing over limited stock.

yes, I hear there are homes going off market and in general, since a very low offer price is going to lead to a lot of low ball offers, I suspect the asking prices are more in line with what sellers actually want.a couple other things I'm watching:-this is typically the time of year that a lot of houses are listed, and in many neighborhoods, you see listings staggered (so only a few at a time) - that's all out the window if we have a shelter in place through May - there will just be a lot of supply on the market at one time-a lot of homes (we hear) were being fixed up before they were listed.

There are plenty of books with general information on household systems and supplies for small household projects are not expensive.

New projects can be delayed up to a year in some cases (retail) which is making supply tight in a market that is seeing explosive growth.

I can even see it when I just go to a contractor supply place and they act like, "Honey, you are going to stick your finger in an electrical socket if you 'attempt' that project." 

Water wells x 2 are the water supply. 

On an upflow furnace, I have seen an installer (from an authorized dealer for the furnace brand involved) leave the evaporator coil attached to the refrigerant lines and the supply ductwork above the furnace, disconnect the old furnace, slide it out from under the evaporator coil, slide the new furnace under the evaporator coil, and hook up the new furnace. 

This may be a really roundabout way to say the same thing the others are--that's a lot of advanced risk for a new investor--but if by any chance you like snow sports, here's my analogy for the answer to your question-https://www.biggerpockets.com/...And then here's a completely backwards article to also help answer.. it talks about why turnkeys are great for newbies, but as you read it, read it from the standpoint of why all that hard stuff may not be great for newbies.https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

There is little supply and huge demand in the area.
