.- Since we're not really in full control of the property, the Hold Harmless also indemnifies us against anything that goes missing at the property and squatters.We get asked/told to do all kinds of crazy stuff by owners, who either don't care what happens to us or haven't really thought everything through.Hope this addresses your question.

We as tenants had to acquire a shop vac and clean it ourselves, including dragging rugs full of filth and animal hair to the dumpsters.

Something many new investors don't think about is that property managers usually negotiate volume discounts for some of this stuff.

The other site that I would be looking at is meetup.com as well, they have a lot of meetups in your area that you can attend to get in front of people doing the stuff you want to be doing.  

I'm a sucker for learning new stuff, so I find it all exciting.

Most investors from California that post stuff like this usually end up in the Midwest.

Those tend to be the neighborhoods that are gentrifying.Unique stuff to Pittsburgh I would say is don't go based on zip codes since one zip code can be composed of multiple different areas/neighborhoods.

I had one client who was going to use it to purchase an STR but decided to wait a few months (he ran into some huge expenses with another rental capex stuff)

Awesome stuff @Guillermo Perez!

The companies that market themselves as "garage door companies" (residential) also almost always do commercial stuff as well, such as what you are looking at.
