I am getting ready to do a full gut on one side of a duplex I just purchased. What are some things we should keep in mind before and during the gut? One thing I found was what seems like old blown in insulation in the attic. The home is aroujd 100 years old. Is there a danger of this insulation being asbestos? I'm not trying to spend a ton of money on this rehab, but if there are any potential issues like this we would run into, would love some advice to know how to handle them.

    Unless it's in a historical district, I don't see any issues other than a normal gut job.   Just make sure you have a really good mask, tough gloves  and have fun!   

    Take lots of before pictures!  I am the worst at remembering this
