Electrical and plumbing was pretty good, just had to fix a couple leaks.

There are always people wanting help...I would lean away from ones looking for plumbing/electricalWould learn how to do installs (cabinets, flooring, appliances, countertops, exterior items, etc.)Just learning efficient ways to work, in real estate, and save $ from having to hire everything out will be extremely useful in my opinion

With foundation problems there are possible plumbing issues, sheetrock repair, flooring repair, exterior wall repair, etc.

Over the next 12 years I slowly mastered my HVAC, electrical, plumbing, carpentry, and locksmithing skills.

@Jimmy LieuHi Jimmy.Conventional and FHA financing have condition of property appraisal specifications.So, a house without working plumbing, without working heat, or a leaking roof, won't pass appraisal standards.

No electric meter, wiring, plumbing or inside walls.

We also lend them our VIP discounts for HVAC, plumbing, etc.. as well as supply stores.

c) Renovations: because projects this size typcially means we have to schedule, monitor and followup with multiple contractors to make sure proper permits are pulled and work done before next stage started (like making sure plumbing, electrical and/or HVAC done right before drywall reinstalled) we charge a 20% markup.

UPDATEEven though not everything went to plan I am please with the final finish, well 95% finished it still needs shelving and a section of trim.Costs:Appliances - $525Cabinets - $1600Flooring - $600Counter tops - $1220Paint - $50Range hood - $190  Sink/faucets/plumbing - $260shelving - $280Toe kick - $40Electrical - $300Drywall - $500Demo - free did it myselfTotal $5,565Learning lessons:I purchased the cabinets from facebook marketplace it seemed like a good deal however I was only shown the cabinets before they were taken out and thought they were hard wood.Took a lot of my time to refurbish and paint - in total about two weeks!

Plumbing,electrical,HVAC is roughed in, framing complete.
