Should you have fences at rental properties?
I have two single family properties that both cash flow very very well. 3-400 after all reserves each. They both have wooden privacy fences. I live in Florida. I have spent at least 2,000 over the last 5-6yrs repairing each of them. Anyone have any thoughts? Seems like a stupid expense at a rental. When tenants leave, should I just take them down? Right now the rental market is incredibly strong, finding tenants is easy. I understand that this could change. Let me know. I don’t mind replacing appliances, AC units etc. fences just seem unnecessary. Would love to hear everyone’s input.
