We also removed bedroom walls and created a large master bedroom/bath.

Upon closing escrow on a small apartment, I removed 2 transients from an ajointing lot, because they were encamped against the back wall of my parking garages.

There were crack on ceiling above the kitchen and of course few walls too (interior and exterior). 

The operation was checked and It was correct, they will have to cover the hole in the wall to dry the water that was on the floor.

With 3 times of many pipes on the walls, chances of leaks and ruptures multiples by 3.

I believe, they purchase their houses in better areas (better than ours) and a complete rehab, plumbing, wiring, roofs, walls, fixtures help with longevity.

Especially labor intensive endeavors like flipping.I think you'll find that using an IRA works best if you a) purchase in cash and have a professional property manager, b) invest in notes or c) loan your funds out to other investors for a higher rate of return than what one could expect from Wall Street.Could you flip houses in an IRA?

I see so many doing absolute trash listings, with these photos of a wall, a cabinet, a door way.

If there is no wiring, I certainly wouldn't go out of my to cut the walls and ceiling and wire it to add the fan. 

My medical degree to diagnose my illness being due to mold came from a Cherios box- it was on the back of the box I just cut it out and pinned it to the wall."
