What Is A Good Price Range Estimate For Completely Re-plumbing/piping A House Like This:?
The house has been vacant for 10+ years and has been stripped of its copper plumbing. Existing materials are also not up to code. Gas lines will need to be re-run, or if approved for an underground propane tank, propane lines will need to be run. We have not yet purchased the property, so it’s difficult to get formal estimates. The home was originally built in 1920, and we plan on gutting the entire interior for a complete remodel.

Get a few qualified General Contractors to come give you some bids. If you need to ask these questions, and you are not experienced enough to have an idea what these repairs would entail, then this may not be the best house for you… unless you are getting it for free!
Talk with the Real Estate Broker, I’m sure they would allow you to schedule some contractors to come look at it with you… they would be interested in what the Contractors have to say, too.
