Be as specific as possible with your criteria to save yourself some time/energy. 

I apologize that we haven't replied sooner, but we are putting all of our time and energy into marketing.

It might cost you a couple hundred bucks but it will be done correctly and will save you a lot of time, energy, and money in the long run.

Any effort to modernize and make {somewhat} energy efficient would involve disrupting / destroying a portion of the woodwork, mouldings and trompe l'oeil.

hi all,just joined this forum after reading the rich dad books. they really opened my eyes and changed my perspectives on finance. im 28 years old and have a young family, I work as an electrical engineer for a big energy supplier. 

I would really appreciate feedback on this deal.SFR, 1939 sq ft, 7400sq ft lotCurrently a 2/2, I plan to convert to a 3/1 plus efficiency. 

And coming from a sales, tech and a construction backround  I understand and have seen that systems can be built and put in place to run efficiently, one just needs to prepare and be aware of the rolls needing the system in the first place. 

If it were me, I would take my time, effort, and energy into figuring out another way.

But I've also been vetting another large-scale provider, which has no problem financing properties at 20% down and sells properties at or below market value and typically 5-10% below median home values in their neighborhoods.So I shared these concerns with this turnkey operator:"We understand the investments [your company] has made in service and efficiency, but all else being equal (which it largely appears to be), it's much easier to understand & move forward on properties that are at/below-market and allow us to get more leverage."

Granted, no one showers at our biz, but it's still very efficient and heats up fast.
