Also tax consequences.

If this is a bigger job involving multiple trades, then this could be more challenging to move on from. 

Hi, I am closing on my first property and would like to connect with local lenders, property managers, handymen/trades, and other investors.

It will help keep you organized, streamline your communications about the repair both to the tenant and to whatever trade person you use to do the work and make your bookkeeping related to the repair easy.

It’s seen in every industry in every trade unfortunately.  

A tenant can pay rent late without consequences in certain scenarios, trash the place, or refuse to move and the landlord has to deal with that.

STRENGTHS-  strong affordable housing market-  cool city with a great feel-  nicely mixed neighborhoods with properties in need of repair next to nice homes-  large university, robust medical community-  decent rents overall, currently trading at 8-10% cap rates-  Micron promises growthWEAKNESSES-  Micron hype is making people spend way too much on properties-  pesky code compliance inspections here too-  student housing area is incredibly compact and difficult to get in to-  difficult to predict if a property will benefit from renovation or not-  contractors are overwhelmed, difficult to get estimatesSummary: Syracuse is experiencing a lot of change right now, in a good way.

(trading it for our time and effort though).Hope you get through it smoothly.  

As a consequence, I tend to force appreciation in any event.

I want a specialist that's an expert, and not a jack of all trades and master of none.
