On older houses, most have been upgraded and remodeled in the past.

I'm still hoping my receipts of years of fixes and upgrades that have gone into the property will help me.  

After a year, took the cash flow my wife and I made to upgrade the house.

But now I'm wanting to up my game, upgrade my clientele and get a 30-50 unit complex.

My name is Parker Snow, I recently upgraded to pro, and just wanted to take a minute to introduce myself.I am 23yo living in California working as a pest control operator.

But now I'm wanting to up my game, upgrade my clientele and get a 30-50 unit complex.

Another contractor upgraded our plumbing and then had an astronomical price to do the electrical upgrades that were not included in his estimate.

I don't know if they want to deal with what come with upgrading to bigger properties and more tenants. 

1940’s builds are guaranteed to have galvanized plumbing and very probably lead lines for sewer connections unless they’ve already been upgraded.  

Plus contacting real lenders is great practice in and of itself.In terms of repairs, from what more experienced investors have told me, they have yet to find a property which needs *nothing* at all in terms of upgrades, even if it's just a few new GFCI outlets in the bathroom, new cabinet fixtures in the kitchen, new living room carpets, or a fresh coat of paint.
