Added a second full bathroom, upgraded light fixtures, paint, kitchen counters,appliances, roof.

When owner did this they could have set up like two condos with agreements about roof, zero lot line, and shared walls.

@Kaira Resch I'm no lawyer, and I don't know what your local laws/regs are for in a situation like this (so, you'll want to do your own homework on that)However, in many leases, I think there are often clauses that terminate the lease if the unit becomes uninhabitable due to some uncontrollable event (like a fire, or a tree falling through the roof).

You probably will not get HVAC, electric or plumbing experience, but probably roofing, siding, windows, cabinets, flooring, wall builds and painting (some of it depends on your local habitat as some work will be contracted out).

Roof redone 20174) The units don't have laundry.

Besides roof and some framing it's mostly heavy cosmetic.

Regardless, that's another $7K you'll have every 20 years or so.What about the roof?

I'm looking at a bunch of condos in Melbourne, Australia and they typically have HOA which is in charge of roof capex and any general building capex outside of anything the is directly located in my prospective unit.

With a rubber roof (2015), a coin-op laundry room in the basement, separate storage, and parking for each unit.

A new roof, all new plumbing & electrical, H20, heating & Central A/C, full insulation & in-unit laundry
