All,i am looking at a 9-unit at the moment, that has one meter for electric and water.

Is it recommended to get Power Of Attorney with seller?

"AES Indiana, Indianapolis’ primary electricity provider, declined to comment about the proposal." - Of course they didn't have anything to say about this proposal.

The footings for the 'living space deck' will be different than the 'open deck', plumbing and electrical stub-outs will be noticed, things like that that....And if you get caught they will become your worst nightmare!

I literally implement based on that.I manage the properties but hire "tool belt" level repairs.I have been onsite for projects in order to provide guidance to the workers and answer questions about how I'd like the repair done.I have held the stupid end of a tape measure.I have held the end of a board, but not used the power tools.This interpretation was reinforced by a (former?)

They cannot do anything structural, nor any electrical or plumbing.

However, if you know for sure that it's worth $100k to you, BUT it needs new carpet, some electrical repairs, and a new fence and those things will cost $7,500 and you have risk involved in doing this work so what you're asking for is a $90k sale price and then you'll have those things done . . . that is WAYYYY more palatable to a seller, as the reasons aren't made up. 

That’s a powerful position to put yourself in.

The power-play that I love to incorporate is to use the cards to purchase gift cards from a company like Raise or Cardcash. 

Purchase price: $110,000 Cash invested: $45,000 We gutted most of the house to make way for new electrical, plumbing new kitchen and demo.
