Quote from @Mitesh Patel: Hello,An emergency electrical issue affected the plumbing lines too, and I am quoted the below price for repairs. 

Learning the basics of electrical , plumbing , AC , painting etc will help you in this line of business which also save you a lot when you acquire your first home.This is how I got started , maintaining the rentals of my uncle  when I was your age. 

Let's say I come across a property  in Atlantic City, NJ with good bones (roof, plumbing, windows, electric, etc..), or even Turnkey!

The seller and I could not come to terms over an issue that arose in my inspection regarding upgrading one electrical panel.

No changes to electric, plumbing, etc.

As long as you stay attentive to the emails and keep bugging you they will fix it. 

The electric bill came up unexpected that month7.

Personally when I rented I never wanted my landlord bugging me but they don't care if my husband ("the handyman") is there all the time.

And remember I have joined the ranks of the furloughed or retired pilots.. 40 years flying around in those little bug smashers I figured i temped fate just about enough and am fine with all the fond memories.I did truly love flying into Pangborn though and the airport at Chelan that one is a little tricky..
