They want someone competent, licensed and with a demonstrated capacity of successful prior projects to perform the repairs such as gutting a bathroom and kitchen using skills like plumbing/electrical/tiling and basic carpentry.

That includes Paying down The Mortage, Gas & Electric, maintenance cost, insurance, and Lawn work/snow removal.

My husband tends to only focus on the "big" projects such as plumbing, electric, and drywall and forgets about these little things that really add up!!

I would ask for actuals from the past 12 months (in the hopes of getting them for 1 month).The estimates provided equate to $50 electric, $50 water, $45 gas, so $145/mo/unit.  

Electrical has not been updated.

I contacted the city in which I purchased the mobile home to get the electricity and water turned on.

However when you see " AS IS" on a listing it will usually means there are issues with the building that need to be addressed such as repairs, system replacements such as needing a new HVAC unit, Electrical work, leaking water heaters, roof is leaking, etc, etc. 

It's an electric dryer, thankfully.

Full price on a place that needed a new roof immediately, new electrical panels immediately, possible need to re-wire the entire place and finally one of the units hadn't been updated in nearly 15 years.
