I just closed, and I need to put the electrics into my name.    

I agree with Sam that tenants will only use the accordion or any electrically actuated shutters. 

The house was a dump, basement leaking, plumbing held together with duct tape, crazy electrical.

My name is Matthew and I am an electrical engineering major at Long Beach.

There is a nice electric flattop range and a standard fridge.

Dawn, Darren and Jay are ALL correct AND if they're city of Milwaukee tax foreclosures, that means a city inspector has already gone through them THOROUGHLY and done a full report on ANY and EVERY issue wrong inside and out and that means they want it fixed up to code (i.e. fixed just right, not some rigged up quick fix) and ALL plumbing and electrical work MUST be permitted, thus you're hiring a master plumber/electrician for that work at around $70/hr +/-.I very, very much caution anyone from skirting the permit rules not just for possible trouble with the city, lots of people do all sorts of unpermitted work and get away with it from city's point of view, but for liability reasons.

I can see that the home has gas heat and the electric meter is still in place.  

I'm trying to have the electricity turned on, but the electric company requires that I have the city of Fort Worth do a inspection before the will allow the electricity to be turned on at the property.

So a "Contract Service handler" takes all the rent $$ and distributes it to everyone (like me, Utilities, Electric, Taxes, etc?

Major repairs included replacing majority of subfloor in a large doublewide and your typical paint, cleanup, trash removal but add $1250 to run new buried electric sub panel.
