I just bought a home for $15,000. It had been listed for $79,900 butthe price was lowered when they discovered several major faults.There is an electrical short which is sparking in the house. There isalso a gas leak and the house has the strong odor of gas. I just paidcash for it and the closing was yesterday. I'm a little short on cashafter that, and I want to get some homeowners insurance before I beginrepairs, in case someone gets hurt. So it may be a few weeks before Iget started on the repairs. When I do, which problem should I fixfirst?Norman T.
