I am visiting today to buy a Rehab.

It says it has 100amp. What are my choices?

What could be the other potential challenges in the house?

    What you'll probably want to do is request upgraded service to 150 or 200 amps. The power company comes in and sets you up with more power. At the same time, you have an electrician install a 150 amp or 200 amp service panel and transfer the existing circuits to the new panel with new breakers. During your rehab, you change things around and rewire accordingly.
