" Exposed " wiring in a potential Rental property .....

[Michael Dunn]

Good Morning,

I need some insight and recommendations as to a situation that has come up, ina  property I am looking to purchase, that has Exposed wiring , all throughout the house.

The house was built around 1955 , and it is all wood on the inside ( almost like a Log cabin on the interior walls ), in that there is no sheetrock anywhere in the house.

Well, all of the wiring that goes to the.... light switches, Outlets and ceiling fans, are all " Exposed " and are tacked to the wall with staples.

Here is my main question please..... I am going to have to purchase this property using a FHA loan, and am afraid that once I get the Appraisal and Inspection, that they will not Pass this property due to the wiring.

There is no way to " Hide " the wires either, since there is nothing to run them behind, I.E. sheetrock .

Has anyone ran into this sort of problem , and is there a possibility that I may be fine, and that it will pass for an FHA loan ?

Thanks for every ones help,

I really appreciate it
