Be prepared for higher turnovers, dealing with parents and kids who have no idea how to live on their own (eg using dish soap in a dishwasher). 

Coffee, shampoo, soap, dishwasher detergent, trash bags...

That said, I spend about $80 on each turn re-stocking items like paper towels, dish soap, shampoo and the welcome basket I put out.

PA law limits security deposits to 2 months for the first year and 1 month thereafter.The workarounds are to request 2 months of security plus the first month's rent at lease signing, then refund the 2nd month of security at the 1 year lease anniversary.

So each year on the anniversary of the lease rent goes up 3%.

We have a saying in Mexico that goes: "Pueblo chico infierno grande" (small town big inferno) we all know each other in the real estate industry so I take my reputation very seriously.Correct realtors make commissions, as well as developers make a profit from the sale of the properties.I am all up for respecting, helping each other, and providing valuable information to readers, today is my wedding anniversary and my wife is going to kill me if I spend another hour writing in this forum lol. 

Despite what this site is all about, real estate doesn't have to be all about the best deal, it can also be a place to enjoy life.Alright, I'm off my soap box.

Basically have the rent go up $X every year on the anniversary month.

I just found something interesting: In 2010, when they proposed amendments to 36-60-17 to make things clearer, this is one of the requirements, which would make a water lien sort of like a mechanic's lien, in that they'd have to file suit within 12 months or lose it......I'm going to dig some into that. " (7) A claim of lien provided for under this Code Section 36-60-17(d), shall lapse and be of no further effect one year after the filing of the claim of lien if an action is not commenced pursuant to subsection (1)(vi) hereof on or before that date which is the one year anniversary of the recording of the claim of lien.
