Sense I was 14 I’ve wanted to flip houses, I’ve worked in carpentry, painting, I can do minor electrical and plumbing, I’m currently working 2 jobs one in HVAC and one in chimney sweeping and chimney repair.

You've already hit on some of the advantages.

Like the roof, A/C, type of electrical wiring, water heaters, garage existence and attached or detached, fencing, windows,  flooring type throughout, concrete slab or pier and beam foundation. 

Also, don't forget that baseboard heating should be installed on its own breaker, which will require running electrical wiring from the unit to the electrical panel.

I’m a 22 year old business owner & I’ve recently hit millionaire status, now I must say, I don’t feel any richer than just a few months ago; if anything, the stakes feel even higher.I’m a millionaire through assets, so cash on hand is limited.

ALSO- Hurricane Michael hit about 40 miles away with damage within 10 miles of this location.

This includes all electrical, anything sharp, heavy, or which could cause any type of injury.  

The next day they called the city and electric company to inspect it as an emergency.
