Some Progress is Better than None.
The Old E Baltimore project is now moving forward. I hope to have this thing rented by mid December. Considering my recent health, I decided to bring in a contractor “friend” to finish the project. Notice the quotes… One would think that today’s prices would be much lower, but by the looks of his quote, maybe he’s still back in 2005. Needless to say, I will be working those numbers down tonight directly in the reply. No need to rework the contract until we come to an agreement. Most of the electrical is completed and the electric company installed the meter and brought power lines to the house. Plumbing needs completion along with a long list of repairs that I will break down in another post. Most of the repairs will be required for Section 8 approval.
Still no word on the Hopkins area project. I assume they want me to go broke paying legal fees and mortgage payments but I will finish it and rent before I allow that to happen.
