The Tenant now has the resolve to fall down the stairs and test exactly how strong your lease and insurance is when they claim the landlord's at fault, or disable the fire alarms claiming they haven't worked in months and you did nothing about it, regardless of what your lease says as to who is responsible for maintaining them, god forbid they start an 'accidental' fire and now your insurer is looking to you as to why the smoke alarm was disconnected not wanting to pay out; you may get some of your $ back out after countless court sessions, time wasted and $$$$ for your lawyers to justify it all for you and set it straight, completely cutting hard into whatever investment strategy you may have had. 4 - Just because you put it in a lease, review it with them, have them sign it, have them take a picture with it, get their DNA on it... does NOT make it legal.

Where a clear disconnect for me in 2018 is in building equity needed to repeat.

Even adding a 3rd bedroom creates a disconnect from the other bedrooms. 

Don't mix the funds from the two up.2 - There's a disconnect in what and how you are getting the 20% for the DP from your tenant/buyer. 

:p  Routers in two of my properties have begun resetting to defaults, which disconnects my wifi locks, thermostats, smart TVs, etc.  

There will be a disconnect since the mortgage is no longer backed by the asset.

Finish the space, so you can disconnect the kitchen if you have to.My main concern for basement apartments is moisture. 

The initial draw of about $6500 was out-of-pocket and he said he'd work with 212 Loans this week to get the work "inspected" for the next funds draw.Soon after closing, my contractor told me to get the utilities turned on because they were all disconnected.

The downside is that the nature of project competition means you can get lower quality work and find a disconnect with those you work with since they are looking for more short-term work. 

Even with this disconnect on the purchase price, I am still excited about the property because it will help clean up the neighborhood as well as should be profitable even with extensive repairs.
