First rental property is nickel and diming me!

I closed on a property a week and a half ago. The roof had two spots that leaked and part of the purchase agreement was that had to be repaired. I was told it was but it was not. So I am in the process of finding someone to make the repairs. It seems nobody wants to mess with metal roofs in Southern indiana. The rest of the stuff is just little things adding up. Finishing trim work. Painting. Rock for the drive. Landscaping needs finished up. I bet I have another 4k in it after its all said and done. It will take quite some time to make that money back. Is this normal? I feel it probably is.
