Received my 1st rent ever along with a service request
I received closed on a single family in Indiana IN. Received first month’s rent yesterday and before I could feel happy about the potential cash flow, I received a service request today for potential raccoon activity in the attic.
Property management company tells me that this is a common problem in this area (Indiana). Is this true?
They quoted $380 for inspection and setting traps and $80 per catch. Is this reasonable? How should I approach this?
As this is my first time ever and receiving such a serious request in the first month itself is a little demotivating and scary for the future expenses.
