I can see ECA DuctWorks investing time and materials in exchange for light returns after sales.

I'm not that familiar with cheap HD products, but I installed 5-10 battery interconnected without wires, it was client provided materials.

As in buying the materials needed and putting in some sweat equity.

Try to keep mulch or materials that retain moisture well away from your asset.

In those cases, the most cost effective way to air seal and obtain any significant insulation is closed cell foam.I would prefer another material - I've even looked into  air-crete as an alternative - though it has its own embodied energy issues and there are claims it's not nearly as effective or stable as claimed.Many of the walls are in fair shape, but we will still be required to redo the bottom 8" if we remove the present hydronic baseboards in favour of heat pumps and/or resistant electrical baseboards.  

Does anyone have any suggestions or good books I can read about how can you build marketing packets and websites when you are spankin' brand new and don't have testimonials or pictures of your flips or any experience ...

This also sounds like a proposed new use for the building, materially different from the markets for most skilled nursing facilities.

Line item bid, non-binding, different columns for materials and labor.

This is just my 2 cents, but the agents that use generic slogans/phrases on all of there marketing material remind me of a used car salesman.

Anyone dealt with either flipping or renting a home with asbestos materials in it?
