[QUOTE="shurur, post: 16413952, member: 113850"] I only have a 4 unit rental property (left) that I renovated over a period of 19 years. Yes to metal roofs. Yes to gas/propane tankless heaters. (clean coils regularly with vinegar..make sure fittings are installed for this from the start) Yes to really thinking about where switches and lighting go. Yes to spray in foam in areas where you will not add to someday.. Yes to thinking about additions later. Make sure plans are set in stone before hiring a contractor. Know your own plans thoroughly. Watch electricians and plumbers like a hawk..be a constant presence..too bad if the contractor and professionals don't like it. Don't hire a bully contractor or know-it-all..it is your damn money..you are the boss. If you detect a hint of jealousy from them, forget them. Otherwise see if you can do all the build yourself with real friends vice paid professional friends and work with the town building inspector to get your work inspected/approved. [/QUOTE]
