Hi all,I have a single family home I purchased in June 2021 for 200k.Aside from cleaning up the yard, painting, and new water heater there have been no improvements.I recently got a letter that my taxes are going up as they believe the property to be worth 225k as of June 2022. 

The inspector pointed out structural issues, potential plumbing issues (hard to confirm since the water was not on but scary enough) since the house was built in the early 1900's.  

It will probably be a really cool space up there all opened up!

For us we either do or do not provide and if it’s provided then we as the owner are responsible for routine maintenance on the appliance and only time tenant is responsible is if they did not take proper care (or use) of the appliance.as a sidenote what if a tenant said - cool not part of lease come remove it I want my own fridge - you will spend more moving it out than you would by including it in lease. 

What a cool place you have!

A lot of other investors who go the same path will be burned and stuck under water once it's ready to sell.

My rental property has sprinklers in the yard yet tenant will be responsible for paying for water.  

I'd look for signs of arcing around those outlets.Other things I look for are how is the foundation, cracks in the walls (assuming lath and plaster), condition of the mechanicals, depending on what the house is built on, I may get a radon test done for the air and water (near me there is a lot of ledge, so radon is an issue in most homes). 

.), Water & Sewer (avg. $107/mo.).Please let me know if you see anything glaring or things that I can work on bringing down or eliminating completely.It's important to note that up until I hired the full-service PM in April '24, I was self-managing from out of state and paid a local boots on the ground resource when needed.

Hello BP community,I'm a landlord in California, and I'm dealing with a situation where my tenant is refusing to pay rent for the time during which mold repairs were being done due to water damage from a neighboring unit.
