Expensive Rehabs

Heating, Ventilation, & Air Conditioning (HVAC)

Ask for the ages of the equipment

Looks for any discoloration or leaks

Duct replacements
Plumbing

Galvanized iron means you'll need to swap it all out at some point

Touch underneath sinks to see if wood is soft/wet (will indicate leaks)

Electrical

Estimate 100 amps per unit. Any less, you might need to get behind the walls to update.

Windows

Windows last about 50 years. The big issue is that you'll likely need to replace all of them if even one of them is showing issues due to age.
