We ask simply questions, like were they late, did they have lease violations, outstanding debt and would you lease to the tenant again.

However, it's definitely been tough to find solid deals that cash flow well as of late, at least on the long-term side I find it to be true, and counting on potential increased demand is a tough investing strategy. 

Besides the low rent she pays she is very demanding, pays late and is not taking good care of the property.

We ended up just doing a shiplap ceiling to eliminate having to drywall and filled the cavity between the two ceiling with rockwool and it has made a pretty substantial difference that wasn't crazy expensive and was a two day project due to eliminating the need to finish drywall.  

Late to the game to reply.   

Common fees will include a set-up fee, a leasing fee for each turnover or a lease renewal fee, marking up maintenance, retaining late fees, and more.

Even late fees.

There are probably many posts that contain similar information to this one, but I thought it would be of value to future and existing investors who are starting their journey.We recently completed rehabbing a duplex we bought for $93k and rehabbed for $75k (in retrospect, we could've negotiated a lower price 🤷‍♂️ - discussion for a different post), hitting an ARV of $190k when our target ARV was $170k.Two things that stood out for me that helped us secure a higher ARV that anyone can use in their next BRRRR were:1) Fix the property to be in the top 75th percentile -> To improve our success rate, we consulted with both our agent and our PMC on what kind of materials and finishes the best properties (highest ARV Comps and Rent Rates) had in the area.

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

I see it also with our single family rental properties, sometimes we refi a package and they are all finished to the same standard, they are very similar, sometimes on the same street.
