I used to be very hands-on involved, and loved it, but my health has made that extremely difficult.  

I have a accepted offer on a two family in MA with knob and tube wiring, but I'm finding it difficult to locate a company for insurance.

This our first insurance claim, so I’m not sure how this goes.

Do you have actual taxes, insurance quote etc ?

Consider:  who collects on insurance if the place burns down 95% through your rehab? 

and exactly how much is needed - even if 100% construction financing, there will be interest & closing costs, insurance, plus often fronting the construction costs before the draws are disbursed, drawings/plans/permits that may not be covered by lender's loan...  3) Agree who will pay for any budget overages.

Property taxes, insurance, utilities, HOA fees and loan/financing costs are some of the ones I've recently learned about.
