The contractor should be able to give you a sense of the condition/remaining service life of the plumbing and mechanicals. 

You guys could start a discussion now, but what happens in another 3 weeks when something else is wrong (Someone steals all the plumbing for scrap)? 

-HVAC -- you have to get a receipt from a HVAC contractor saying its running clean-Bathroom tub needed more caulking around the edge, to prevent water from reaching subfloor-Toilet was running-a Window wouldn't hold itself up, which ended up being a pretty expensive repair. 

We do have a management company also, but are hands on working with contractor, cleaning etc...  

Make sure you check out your contractor thoroughly, a bad parging job will not survive it's first winter.

Contractors, lawyers, CPA, brokers, title contacts, lenders, and etc. 

Im wanting to buy a home (SFH) and was wondering if the house buying process is the same as buying a SFH investment property ( Doing the Due Diligence, Hiring Contractors, etc). 

Also, if anyone has any realtor / contractor / CPA / attorney suggestions that are familiar with investing and the area, feel free to let me knowThank you in advance, BP community, for helping me get going!

My problem keeping this person is, I have been sent Facebook post of her asking for contractors to do work.

I am finally interviewing several contractors and GCs about starting work on a 3bd 2 ba in Long Beach, CA.
