That doesn't include converting from swamp cooler to AC, at another $6k cash.

tenants bring in throw rugs if they want them.. of course its the deep south so they acutally were pretty good being cooler.. in summer.. and it does not get that cold in winter don't thing they would work up your way but maybe..

There is something psychologically that happens when you hand them X amount of dollars (typically, my bird dogs make $3k easily per deal(another tip, pay them more than the next guy) and they know you're legit, they're loyal to the person who pays them and again, nothing is cooler than having them walk away with cash in their pocket)So, there ya have it. ;)

They also have instructions you can download.http://www.hud.gov/offices/adm/hudclips/forms/hud1.cfm

What I do see in my biz is a lot of remote working people discovering the Midwest and the lower cost of living - and the cooler temperatures. 85F is a hot day here in summer.

The water heaters are in tight crawl spaces which I dislike, it's got swamp coolers which I dislike, and pretty much all the other work that needs doing just doesn't look enjoyable and I'm already too busy.

I was exposed to the better/cooler half of my industry (RE Investing) a few years ago and have sought out a fair amount of knowledge about the investing side but...I have some very specific gaps that I would like to clarify as I enter full throttle mode.

Yes, we are in the South, however there is likely a slow-down during the cooler months of late Nov-February. 

If it's near the beach, I would ensure they have toys they can bring with them (paddle boards, floaties, shovels and buckets, beach chairs and towels, coolers, etc.).

We had a cooler full of Salmon  Elk jerky and Smoked salmon.. if it had a big patch of timber we led with that gift and let me tell you that calms anyone down.
