Hi All,I just got my first-ever tenant moved in this past Saturday and all was going smoothly until she called to set up her electric.

The electric has been off so the sump pump would not be functioning. 

Or if things are that slow in the off season , shut it down , if the rent is canceled out by the cleaning , you are still losing money , electric and wear and tear . 

I know I’d be able to adjust rents and/or pass on at least water and electric expenses down the road. 

Things that drive the ARV higher - roof, plumbing, electrical, paintThings that don't drive the ARV as much - windows, landscaping, driveway

The day I purchased it I reached out and introduced myself to all four tenants and one tenant told me that she was currently living with a relative because her electric got shut off.  

The cost starts with  1.) plan cost (survey, civil engineer, site plan, architect, structural engineer, mechanical/electrical/plumbing (short for MEP) plans, etc.).

While shopping for a small multi-family building (3 or 4 units), I would like to get an inspection of the building to get an estimate of repair costs if any problems are found (foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, heating). 

I also added the 300 for electric.

For electrical, unless they overloaded circuits and caused the damage, it is up to the landlord to cover the expenses.
