Has a better ring to it.You realize this is the cost for your ticket for the event, your room, all your food and drinks and activities on the resort right?

I see this all over Philadelphia with Properties built around that same time that are deteriorating due to contractors missing these small ticket items. 

And while travel is going to be expensive for any property, if you only have one in a market, the concept is the same with less rent: that $2,000 flight/hotel/rental car food for a one night visit, ties up a lot more of your gross when that gross is much lower. 

Inspection reports will always be a very meticulous report of all items that need to be repaired, or suggested to be repaired in a home. 

Food for thought.

I thought I'd squirrel some money away in case of a big ticket item like water heater, roof, etc. 

Mold requires moisture and a food source (dust is sufficient).

Professional property managers are often licensed real estate brokers who specialize in acting as the filter for you for the number items, which are not only costly but a headache.

They can also be another item that will need maintenance / replacements if they break down. 

This is for mid-range quality and minimal assembly items- what you save in purchase price you will lose in replacement and assembly costs!
