I'll have a little bit of cash saved up after the down payment but didn't necessarily want to drain it on fixes for the home to be move-in ready.

Repairs have been fairly rare- though I did have to put $125 worth of parts into a washer that is used by 4 apartments last week, plus spent a few hours figuring out what was wrong and how to fix it (torn seal on the front loader making it leak, and coin trap jammed up with paper money and a guitar pick causing it not to drain). 

@Nam Hoang you may want to reach out to a company like water mac or Jerz drains finding honest plumbers that will work on smaller jobs and while providing honest estimates is sometimes a challenge, Ive had both of these companies complete jobs on time and within budget for me on more than one occasion if my regular plumber is tied up on other jobs

Keep in mind however that this can be draining on you as well.

The roofer incorrectly cut the internal roof drains while putting on a new roof, we consequently had four separate commercial office suites flood out.

As landlords we provided fire extinguishers, a dryer gas line, dryer vent work, bathroom drain stop, and all new blinds/appliances.

I offer to help our tenants, to ensure they're installed correctly - not damaging the frame, or draining improperly.

The investment property that has tenants won't be worth as much for depreciation and my account will be mostly drained.

It didn't matter how careful the tenants were it would peel, scratch, wear through & then the drain opening began to corrode.Finally we went with bath fitter & its been 3 years of NO deterioration & no complaints.

Thank you for your reply Gary. yeah its 1200$/month down the drain.. but some of the apts in my building have been on the market for over 100 days, which scares me..
