This is a 3 bed, 3 bath, 2200 square feet house, no basement, two levels.The rehab includes 3 baths, kitchen, flooring and indoor and outdoor painting, landscaping, all appliances.

Also, a shed in the back houses lawnmowers for a landscaper paying $75 a month.  

So far, we are looking at about $11,000 before landscaping to bring the property to prior condition.

I typically figure 5% repairs, plumbing, electrical, 3% miscellaneous (tree trimming, gutter clean-out, landscape upkeep, lock changes, etc.)That deal is tight. 

Not an excuse, but the reality the kind of chaos, confusion, and exploitation that happens after a hurricane.So, when I end up getting someone who's available, with a chainsaw, able to take action, who's offering to help clear the debris off the roof, who's driving a truck "BLT Trees and Landscaping" but said it will be all cash, I yielded. 

The same goes for access, parking available, on-site and off-site amenities, exterior looks plus landscaping, nearby schools, floor plan design, area retail, and more.You may have heard that you need experience before purchasing but that is a myth. 

Hold your camera in landscape direction (horizontal) so the photo will match the aspect ratio.  

Also I invest out of state so I like knowing everything outside of the unit is taken care of and the tenant doesn't have to deal with landscaping or watering.  

The $450 is for landscaping etc.

I am in a process trying to have a better way to manage the two properties, so I am working to gather the list of reliable contractors, landscape companies, electrician, HVAC, plumbers, snow plowing, roofing company.
