You will find many different answers, but let me give you what i would do about your questions.1) I would hire a licensed person for anything major like plumbing, electrical, hvac etc.

.- newer furnace, older central air, 10 yr old roof, newer plumbing, updated electrical service, vinyl siding, new windows and doors.- needs about $2,000 in small repairs to be ready for tenant.- purchase price $77,400.

For us rental property investors that could include work for plumbing, electrical, carpentry, equipment maintenance, accounting, gardening, property management and similar services.Originally posted by Kyle Meyers:I have a few questions about the exceptions though.1.

- one heat-pump is older than I thought, 20+ years, and isn't blowing any cool air, backup electrical heat didn't appear to work either (no gas furnace at this place).

In my home I have wood and kerosene heat for backup and a generator for TV and the computer, Like Workerdrone winter camping is great NO BUGS I hate spiders.

I pull way too many, and if I had to rely on an agent for help things would go much slower, and the agent would be super annoyed that I'm bugging him all the time.

I'm glad you asked this, I'm interested in the replies you'll get, because I know what I like, and I know what my clients like, and it differs sometimes.I prefer a PM that can take care of things without bugging me all the time.

If you have an outlet right outside the closet, it would be very easy and cheap to run the electrical yourself for a new light.

Having your copper, AC, and electrical wiring stripped will destroy your profits for a long long time.As a new landlord, I would not go it on my own in this type of area, but with the right PM, it can indeed be very lucrative.

page=1My assumptions are that the walls and ceiling would need to be insulated, all electrical would need to be inside the walls, and the finished height of the ceiling would have to be 7' or higher.
