As for cost, my nuclear-powered Duke Energy NC Residential Service (RES) costs $0.11661 per kWh.

Why would you spend all your time and energy trying to convert her into a good tenant, knowing you're unlikely to succeed?

You are young and you have energy, so work a lot while you don't have any other commitments or people depending on you.

Recently, I managed a home renovation project where the contractors were paid at closing, which significantly boosted the sales price.

Has anyone worked with a lender who has actually closed an FHA, VA or Conventional Energy Efficient Mortgage?

They claim it will boost property value.It might, but I feel like that is should I should have known about prior to purchase and I'm also unsure how the city can do this with out permission or paying for it.

I would focus your energy on that flip.

Insurance is WAY cheaper for a new build, as are utilities, because the newer homes are more energy efficient, and also have less need for immediate upgrades. 

These efforts boosted the property's value, leading to a successful sale at $325,000.
