Charge the tenants for the service calls to repair THEIR damages & violations.

Hello, BP Community!I reached agreement with a seller to buy their 12 unit building at a very good price, but the property is located in an area where I'm required to have windstorm insurance because it's location clo...

It was repaired last year but needs replaced within 3-5 years. 

Capital improvements are not immediately deductible as repairs; instead, they must be added to the property's cost basis and depreciated over the property's useful life.

Hi,I have property with a PM....as part of the agreement any late fees go 100% to the property manager.......my tenant moved out without paying last month's rent and the property also had a bit of damage and repair expense (3-4x monthly rent.) 

New construction in appreciating areas offers long-term value growth, minimal repairs, and potential tax benefits, but often comes with higher purchase prices and slimmer initial cash flow.

And, that is in a nice neighborhood where you can get $1100/mo for a 1 bedroom.Here it is: $50,000 rental income less CapX and Operating Costs @30% (don't forget you own 16-20 appliances that nowadays last maybe 5 years and can't be repaired) . . . =$35000 for debt service and return on downpayment.

No one will care about you place as much as you, but they are also a go to place for some people who are looking for rentals.I would sell a place if there is frequent turnover and repairs or if your long term goals have changed.
