But I think they'd be around $4,800 (conservative estimate).Seller is also claiming there are no common electricity at all- which is hard to believe, considering there's common gas, water and sewer. and most likely a common area electricity.

From, "someone ate my food" to "someone takes long showers and uses up all the hot water" and even arguements over parking spots.Who wants to handle all that extra nonsense for "free"?

I am very new to this and I am a fish out of water just flopping around trying to figure it out. 

We had redone a brand new kitchen and included a new water line for a refrigerator cold water dispensing.

I am hopeful we will see another interest rate drop and have a hot Spring market. 

A smoke detector in every bedroom and a smoke detector and carbon monitor in hallway of every floor and in the basement or attic IF you have furnace, hot water heater etc in them.

Instead when the washer drained water went everyone.

Usually as long as their are no life threatening issues (no HVAC, windows won't open, no hot water), the housing authority will began to pay the rent and give you time to address the required repairs.

In the next few months, I'm looking to get a standard CA NAA lease with RUBS included for billing the water and sewer, as well as requiring tenants to have their own renters insurance, as that is not something they are currently required. 

I do not recommend backyard especially if you have a pool or hot tub and certainly nothing interior!
