Sure i didn't get the full amount upfront but 11k in the pocket and a little residual income for a year is a lot better than nothing!

@Ki Lee I like the glue down type (adhesive separate not the peel and stick kind) for concrete subfloors and click together for plywood so you don't destroy it when time comes to redo it

And so I wonder if learning TWO (storage AND construction) new very different skill sets simultaneously is the best way to break into the world of residual income? 

But reading in between the lines, landlording is not your bag so you will need property management, but I think they larger issues are that there is residual maintenance that you need to do on the units and that is what will keep some of the calls away.

On a primary turn,  I want all the trim sanded, BIN primer coat for adhesion, 2 coats of KILZ oil-based, sanded to 220, then two coats of Rustoleum thinned with Penetrol, also sanded to 220.

Sometimes there’s not a proper moisture barrier below the slab so ambient moisture can leach through the slab up and into any adhesive and destroy the glued integrity and cause mold/mildew issues.

This would account for the overage, trim, and install material like underlayment or adhesive etc.Labor, let's assume boring easy to install non Craigslist special and someone who's actually insured etc. 2.00/sqft.So we're at 4.00l/sqft or 4,000.

You will receive a report as a result of the cost segregation study that supports the breakout between asset classes and new depreciation schedule in the event that you are audited by the IRS.Here is an example of some items included in a restaurant and their useful life classification:5 Year ClassificationAwnings and canopiesBeverage EquipmentComputersData Handling EquipmentDoors (Special lightweight doors installed to prevent accidents in areas with heavy traffic)Drive-thru equipmentFire protection equipmentFloors (installed with strippable adhesive)KiosksWindow treatmentsWall covering (strippable wallpaper)Sound systemsSigns (display trade name)Retail furnitureRetail fixturesRefrigeration equipmentMillwork - Decorative7 Year ClassificationOffice furnishings15 Year ClassificationConcrete, Foundations and Footing (related to light poles, signs, and land improvements)Trash enclosures (freestanding enclosure typically on concrete pad)Site workParking lots39 Year ClassificationCeilingsConcrete, Foundations and Footing (related to the proper setting of the building)Doors (interior and exterior)Air curtain doorsElectricalElevators and EscalatorsExit signsFire protection and alarm systemsFloorsFloor covering (installed with permanent adhesive, nailed or screwed in place)HVACWindowsWalls (interior and exterior)Wall coveringsTrash Enclosures (attached to the building)Site utilitiesSigns (exits, restrooms, room numbers, etc)RoofRestroom partitionsRefrigerated structures (cold storage, walk in freezer, etc)Millwork (general building or structural)

I'd leave the tub, it looks fine - then just demo down to the studs, redo the tile (cement backer board, sealer, tile, grout, adhesive) and faucets/valve and move on with it ($200 in parts).

Came back to my apartment after Winter break and noticed some cups I had left with water in them had evaporated and left behind an oily/heavy metal looking residue.
