Adding additional wiring to new block home

I have just recently purchased a new block home here in Florida, and as I am retired, I did not wish to pay the upgrade pricing on adding additional electrical outlets to the new home. My question is this: How do I access the existing wiring so I can add outside spots, can lighting, etc......

Thanks for your prompt response!

This is typical cinder block construction found in Florida with slab foundation. I don't believe I will have any problem extending additional wiring inside the interior walls, but I have no idea how to access the ceiling or over the top of outside walls to add spots, fan, etc .....to patio
Yes, homes are quite reasonable here in Florida. It is pobably one of the best places to buy at this time. I purchased a new townhome by GL Homes at Valencia Lakes, Wimauma, Fl. I paid $160,000. for a 3 bedroom 2 bath. I will be paying about $400.00 a month for HOA but this gives me access to a 27,000 sq foot meeting place with large pools, workout rooms etc. Tks for getting in touch. Mainly, I want to put spots on the patio. and additional outlets inside. .
