4-Plex Estimate Update

Last night, I had a few minutes to look over the estimate some more. I knew there were a couple of items not on the estimate that were on the inspection report, and I wanted to see exactly what they were leaving out. It turns out they didn't include the following in the estimate:

* Replace gutters
* Wood rot (due to existing, terrible gutters)
* Replace two screen doors
* Replace two crawl doors
* Install heating system in one unit

Also, the inspector noted the following items he recommended needed replaced due to their age:

* Unit #1, #2, and #4 heating units
* Unit #3 and #4 water heaters

There were also some minor things like patching a pot hole in the driveway, which I can live without. My wife is still hell-bent on just getting our deposit back and moving on, but if I am going to try and see what kind of leverage this brings us first.
