We always bill the tenant.

@Bill Hampton Nice to meet you Bill!

Quote from @Bill Hampton: @Brandon KrasnerTurbox charges $1749 for a full service partnership/business return. $1500 and up is the going rate.

For vacancies, you deal with them as they come up...or as Bill mentioned, hire a good property manager.

You have bills to pay, it's sad that they have issues but it's not your concern and your bank damn sure doesn't care. 

So I was going to start title search first, then if it comes back clear I'll give them about $10k cash for them to move out and catch up on bills, then fix the place up really quick and turn around and sell it on the MLS.

I learned a lot through trial and error, and just being a moron half the time, but learning from my mistakes! 

The easiest way is to estimate the bill, and include it as part of the rent. ($800 rent +$50/mo utilities).

Hi @Adam HoekerI have my clients all on QuickBooks Online.We sync in their accounts to reduce human error in entries, and track each property's expenses and transactions to prepare for Tax time, this helps us to be prepared for 1099s as well, track Asset Basis and Depreciation, Mortgage Balances, and any Equity items.Since QBO is very common, it is easy to connect a Tax Accountant to this as well and have them pop in to grab reports they need to file. 

It's like paying your credit card bill with another credit card......
