It also encourages me to keep the maintenance up because I get a bonus for a quick placement and I don't risk getting fired by the PM for maintaining my property poorly. 

Unlike Alkaline batteries they maintain full voltage until they die so battery meters can't detect a true % of battery life.

If Jesus came back and got into rentals NO, N-O-B-O-D-Y get's admin access into our system. 2) They want a standardized list for maintenance items so they know in advance what repairs would cost.Being a PMc I'd invite them to acquire any of the readily available construction estimating tools/software out there such as RSMeans, but would not take on such a task as building and maintaining such a database, honestly for any $, it's simply not what we do. 3) They want a copy of all invoices from contractors to us so they can verify we are not marking up more than promised.A-ok. 4) They want to be able to talk to our contractors before work is done (each time) so they can talk contractors down in price themselves.I'd be fine with this as long as they sign a waiver that they own any/all negative impacts that result from such including extended vacancy periods, vendor refusals of service necessitating there own self-search to secure amicable vendor etc etc.. 5) They mentioned that they pay around $300 for full paint in a 2-bedroom unit.... we do not have a contractor that will touch a full paint on a 2 bedroom for $300LMAO!

Bright and clean.I'm just worried about a lot of maintainence on older machines and whats a good price to be firm on since I could be replacing a lot of machines.

It’s not a feature a tenant will pay extra for, much less maintain.  

So my plan is to get experience on managing property & maintaining tenants.

This program will be enforced to ensure compliance with the community's governing documents and to maintain the quality of life for all residents.

@Patrick Flanagan no one's mentioned the challenge of MAINTAINING TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD!

Also, building strong relationships with your investors and maintaining open communication is key to establishing trust.Your deal structure looks promising, and with your background, I'm sure you'll do well in this new venture.

I just buy in good locations and control what I can (forcing appreciation, managing and maintaining properties well).
