You have your basic utilities of $400, taxes and insurance of $200, and miscellaneous expenses of $600 which could include cleaning service, maintenance, booking fees, etc.

An example of my recommendation to a new investor is to go buy a house with easy re-sale, that needs superficial changes such as painting, landscaping, new carpet, roofing, etc. 

Does it have a drinking water well that has clean drinkable water for human beings?

Ideally, the right company will handle everything from cleaning and booking management to on-the-ground troubleshooting for guests when needed.

And as the buyer (my colleague) is now getting closer to closing it's starting to look like it might be worth just cleaning the place out and doing a very low cost rehab (paint, pressure wash and handyman repairs) for a quick sale.

I also try to limit JEs where I can but sometimes it's the easiest route to the same result just not as clean haha I'm wondering though if you use the bank feed to split those transactions, won't the cash balance show specific to that property?

It's a super clean interface and leaves no doubt as to the status of payment.

Would be about 6 doors I’d say, carpet, flooring and old trim for sure.

we cleaned up the exterior, painted interiors, added LVP flooring, bbq pits and picnic benches What was the outcome?

Ripped out all of the carpeting, living room built-ins, and the kitchen.
