Need Help With Few Questions About Property Issues

gamaz profile photo

After visiting a property for second time I found out that the upper floor has kind of curvature in the bathroom area. I am wondering why there is curvature in the bathroom. Is it may be due to structure problem. There are cracks in the ceilings and looks like plastering needs to be done all along the wall. How much is the cost of plastering two units of a two bedroom duplex. The third thing is that there is no air conditioning in the building. I was told that old home of more than one hundred years old this is common. Without air whether the duplex is rent worthy or not. I appreciate any feedback

Thanks

    Sounds like you need a qualified building inspector or a general contractor. Since this is under the Bird Dog / Beginners Forum, is this a property you intend to wholesale to an investor? Some wholesalers will give more detailed repair estimates, but most just provide an overall guestimate without any professional basis for their repair numbers.

    Could be a water leak has caused some swelling, poor construction, a pocket of termites or carpenter ants, etc. Never assume, find out why and them make a call on the facts!
