Since the tenant is out of town most of the time, water and electricity should be cheap.

On the other hand, rooms, electrical, plumbing, water heaters, etc will blow your budget really quickly.

(The reason I give them a couple extra days is because I know how stressful moving can be and I don't want to risk them not having electricity while they're in the process of moving.)Now, if for some reason they don't take the necessary steps to establish utility service in their name before the 3rd, the utilities are still going to be transferred out of my name and shut off.  

I want a CPA on my "dream team" that will tell me what to do to benefit us all.We are going to do majority of the work 80% the rest will get done by Dan's subcontractors (plumbing, electrical, roof).

After doing some diggin it turns out their "variance" states that this property is a 3 Family because of a third kitchen (A past tenant was illegally renting the basement and put a kitchen in their) Without losing my cool I gathered as much information as possible...tax records, listing history, pictures of 2 separate electric outlets, boilers etc..I also brought my offer up about $5,000.

A community well is available forland owners and as of right now, no electricity.

She has walls, inside studs, windows, electrical, plumbing and roofing.

Or should I just go spend a couple days in the records room and figure it out while bugging employees and others I see in there?

I'd imagine it wouldn't be extremely difficult to seperate the wiring, relocate the panel and add a meter to the apartment (the basement is one large basement divided between two units).I'm wondering if anyone has ever added an electric meter to a house?

I know the electrical was completely redone recently.
