For every home I've ever bought, I've had a pest, property, roof, and fireplace inspection performed.Once the reports are returned, you can determine if you are ok with the condition (proceed with closing), not ok (exercise your contingency clause and exit the deal), or whether you want to negotiate certain items with the seller to have them fix and/or have them lower the price/give you a credit at closing to compensate you for doing the work.

Original hardwood floors, trim, arched doorways, and handsome, functional, fireplace help maintain the original character of the home.

Was anything done to mitigate the chance of future loss (ie. if log came out of fire place, was the fireplace bricked up or converted to gas, if it was an electrical issue, were all the older wires replaced, etc.)See if you can get your "Loss Runs" (claims reports) for as many years as you can.  

Over 1,000 sq. ft. with wood-burning fireplace, private deck and garage parking just down the hill from Diamond Peak Ski Resort & within 1 mi. to golfing, Casino & private beach! 

If so, a small floor stove or fireplace.  

Thing is most roofers will "get by" with the old flashing on skylights, fireplaces and other penetrations on the roof.

I prefer not having a fireplace in my rentals myself.  

The fireplace used to have a wood stove, we removed due to constant maintenance requirements, didn't realized it has no dampers.

I'd love any and all recommendations on subs across: electrical, plumbing, tile, demo, framing/drywall, fireplace/ chimney experts Please also let me know if you have any recommendations on housekeeping or airbnb management. 

I save 15% of everything I make and have used most of my earnings to upgrade my fathers kitchen, bathrooms, and we recently just added a stone patio with a fireplace in the backyard.
