This is because sewer access is sometimes buried behind walls/floors.Questions for buyer agent: Why is the seller selling?

Every now and again another tenant who is a respected doctor complains of marijuana smell coming through the walls.

@David Walls Thank you!

Fits the relatively narrow spaces well.2) Sliding doors: a little more privacy but more difficult to install.3) Walls: possibly need a permit, but might be easier.

All their units feature at least one whole wall of floor to ceiling windows and I could already dream of the lake and mountain views through them.

As soon as you open up drywall, frame new walls, redo electrical or plumbing your timeline and budget explodes.A good flip follows the same sequence as new construction:1.)

I personally have each of my properties setup in their own LLCs (no biz license required where I am at) and then have a personal liability policy to cover myself as an individual in case someone got through the LLC wall.

@Jaron Walling Thank you for the response.
