Yes, installing new A/C heating unit to a duplex can easily cost you $15000-30000.When I needed to ad Central A/C to my 1963 duplex, it costed me just $15000, roof installation and permits.

@Bill GulleyI wasn't anticipating, nor even expecting, you to advise on how this might play in Canada (that's why I tapped @Claude Boiron), but was hoping you might add some depth an clarity to Frank Chin's initial reply above (as typically practiced in the U.S.A.).It's intriguing, but the more I have dug into the idea, I'm still not convinced it's something I could pitch to a property owner easily.  

this is a leader to get you to repond then its the old credit card scam.. they help you apply for a bunch of credit cards you could get on your own and they charge you 3,500 for the privilege .What they try to get you into is credit cards that have the teaser first year rate then it goes to normal rates. this for someone who can stroke a check can easily be gotten with out these folks. and if you don't have 50k in  your bank account your taking a huge risk of piling up CC debt and then be totally fubared if your deal does not work or does not work on time..

I would think the IRS might say if you haven't even bothered to set up a business entity for your "business" then it probably is not ordinary or necessary to be travelling to out of town seminars.Claiming to be travelling for the purposes of checking out business opportunities is a common claim and I think they spot the fakes easily.

Unpaid labor can get you into problems during any possible eviction as well as you've lost quality control of the repair and easily become in violation of building codes.I vote NO also.

Nice that this lets me work out the timeline just as easily if I happen to be using the Mayan calendar.  

@Trevor Rutherford, I'd actually let her leave so she doesn't struggle with rent each month....especially because it's the summer right now and you'll be able to find another tenant easily (as opposed to the winter).

And the buyer/tenant can upgrade easily if they don't like them.

Often the amount of lead paint is minor and easily dealt with.
