We are in the process of selling a rental property.
We are currently under contract with a buyer but following their home inspection, they want the exposed knob and tube wiring in the attic to be replaced.
I believe the wiring is fairly readily accessible up there (no drywall) but it's a small space (you can crawl and move around but you can't really stand up).
I bought the home about 6 years ago and don't remember this being an issue at my home inspection. The house is small (580 sq ft- 1 bed/1 bath) and built in the late 1920's.
Sometime in 2003/2004ish they converted the power from an old 4-fuse box to a standard electrical panel and it passed city inspection at that time. (I'm sorry if those aren't the right terms but I hope it makes sense).
Both the old fuse box and panel have power going through them, they're just hooked together. We live in South Dakota. I was wondering if anyone could give me a rough estimate on repair costs for this type of thing? Thank you!!
