The biggest thing I notice on this one (just from the pictures) is the absence of electrical work (receptacles not present on some walls/kitchen, ceiling fixture with pull) which means the electrical panel is probably 60amp, and the odd gas supply repair which indicates the landlord was cutting corners. 

We don't even a Board yet (it's a new build), and it's all being coordinated by the HOA management company for the building.The developer offered to make the new door key fobbed on each side for entry, and would install a new security camera. 

He claimed if he didn't get the money he could not buy supplies to complete the job, which would be done in a week(I knew this wasn't true). 

Whether you’re managing properties, operating STRs or long-term rentals (LTRs), or just have an opinion on the state of the market, I’m eager to hear your thoughts and any new developments you’ve noticed.Here are a few things I’ve observed:Increased Supply of RentalsI’ve lived in Gainesville for a while now, and I remember a time when it was tough to find a rental.

I believed I was putting that hard-earned money into something secure.

Would it be a good idea to take a deposit to secure the deal until the rule clears?

or options 3, 4 and 5 don't supply washer and dryers and either the tenant provides their own, rent appliances or goes to community laundramat.

You will receive the security deposit in Checking but then transfer it to Savings.Savings: Hold the deposit here so it's separate from operating funds.
