In the metro-G.R. area where this is, I am, it is difficult to purchase anything that cash flows to rent otherwise, and it is a very hot market yet. 

I keep hopping around from Florida to Nashville to North Carolina, maybe Ohio for the lower price point when I was considering buying more than arbitrage.

Then based on @Michael Baum's suggestion, I think I will have my cleaner and/or maintenance person do monthly/quarterly maintenance like using using enzyme based cleaners, grease fighting drain treatments and hot water flushing. 

However, in emergencies or cases involving health and safety, we would attempt to contact the owner first and, if unsuccessful, proceed with the repair as outlined in the contract.Regarding the hot water heater, do you know if it genuinely needed to be replaced?

(And I would tell you to not buy a property that doesn't cash flow unless you have significant resources behind you that could absorb anything that could come at you - like replacing a $5,000 AC one month followed by replacing a $1,000 hot water heater the next).

Orlando, Kissimmee, and Lakeland are hot for mid-to-long-term rentals, with Orlando's tourism and Lakeland’s logistics expansion driving demand.
