Hello fellow investors, thanks in advance for your advice and suggestions.  

@Dillon Hutsell I am a fellow veteran, realtor, and investor.

Purchase price: $175,000 Cash invested: $90,000This was one of the hardest renovations we have completed to date, the house was very neglected for over 30 years.

I would begin marketing immediately, and mention it will be ready the date that you have very high confidence it will be available.The harder part is being selective what you show. 

To date I have been self-managing my property and it has been pretty straight forward since I was living there.

I copied this from the Chicago RTLO which is attached to the CAR lease:-Before a landlord can deduct expenses for damages from the security deposit, the landlord must provide the tenant with an itemized statement of the damages within 30 days of the date the tenant vacates the dwelling unit.

However, it is the third factor—whether investor business had actually commenced—that is determinative here.In investor’s business outline, dated May 10, 2004, he indicated that he was starting Value Property Investments “for the purpose of buying, remodeling and renting property.”

You might consider giving a notice to the entire building that you will be doing a walk-through on a certain date to check the condition of the property - you have a right to maintain your property and access all units if they are home or not with proper notice.Also, make sure that your notices have a person named as UNKNOWN OCCUPANTS listed.

My cost per letter is $0.82 with postage plus my time to sign, hand address, seal, mail and document send dates in CRM.  

Hey Ola, I'm a fellow Californian and huge advocate for the Detroit market.
