If you are trying to do this in Newark, you need to know the market of that particular set of blocks so you don't overdevelop for the farm area.

You just need someone who understands the "block-by-block" nature of the city and surrounding areas.

Often times they come back with a list of repairs that they would like to see to protect the home or mitigate liability. 90% of the time those items were on our list to fix anyway, and sometimes we even haven't done before we get the letter from the insurance company.

Should I be pushing my PM to send a new letter with a 3 day notice. 

However I do go in slow season and I do not put in blocks. 

The bigger concern I would have is low pressure due to blocked pipes, especially to the bathrooms.

Try to buy “blocks of time” in advance?

I have contacted family members in the past with literal hand written letters.

I have provided them a letter from my broker about the amount that can be used.

If you’re serious about buying properties and doing real estate, then I would suggest working with the CPA that understands real estate even if the services cost more than your average H&R Block or some TurboTax program you can buy.
