[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Things you want to check: electricity and plumbing. This will be your biggest expense. I was the lucky one to buy a 1920s house and be told all was good by the home inspector only to find bootleg grounded outlets and knob and tube in the walls. $25k to fix. Just the electricity not the new drywall. Months later my sewer line collapsed and I was told had a huge tree root in it and was probably like that for years leaking underground. $15k for that one. [/quote] How could there be knob and tube in the walls but a modern circuit box? [/quote] I believe it. Chandler’s came to our 100 year old flipped home to ground some outlets and asked if our flipper picked up the person who did our new wiring from 7-11. They did some half-as$ed bootleg grounding too.
