I think im going to sign up for the non-judging showfield at Carlisle just so I can park with the group. I'm assuming there is a group name?

The biggest items to check are the roof, the heating/cooling system, and the general condition of the plumbing. Those are things that the average DIY'er does NOT want to deal with.

Make sure the HOA there allows you to change things, condos are different then normal neighborhoods, they like to keep things uniform.
That place looks like it fits the mold though, update kitchen/bathrooms, paint, decoration, floor. All ish you can do, then wait for market to pick up and sell...

hmm, no rental companies rent shop presses... it might be more economical to buy a HF one...
I have really been considering that lately. I need to replace a bunch of bearings on the jeep. Add in a bearing swap on the S and, boomderyago, I've paid to have my own press. The HF ones are only like 2 or 3 hundred bucks.

Probably not bad... Condos are good because the roof is not your problem; that is what the dues are for. HOWEVER, that place looks kinda old so you need to really watch the HVAC. It is probably ancient... The water heater, too...
