Fellow BPers,A2Z has been a breath of fresh air compared to my previous property manager, so far so good!

The one the plumber sells will cost him less than that, and he may try to talk it up as better than the "big box" ones, but it's probably about the same.Add maybe $50 to that for parts - like a new temperature/pressure relief valve if the new one doesn't come with one, maybe new flexible water lines if it's not plumbed in directly, maybe a new shutoff valve. 

Inflationary pressures are being felt in all the categories that play into this ROI calculation. 

Have fun collecting from someone who peaced out a month ago.3) A landlord/manager should have reasonably priced resources, because not every repair bill is paid by a tenant.I would definitely not put basic faucet replacement in the same category of plumbing as soldering pipe joints behind a wall or installing pressurized systems.

There is significant downward pressure on rents due to the oversupply of rentals. 

Rent prices right now have downward pressure, but that could simply be seasonality.One trend that is common when looking at good deals are houses that are listed with more bedrooms or bathrooms then what the city has listed. 

., I would say start developing a relationship with small jobs like pressure washing or dryer vent cleaning. 

It's a split level that I bought in original condition, including a 1984 ancient-looking air conditioner and all the things that come with a house of this nature.The plan was to do a full cosmetic + replace HVAC and Roof + prune back 60ft tall pine trees AND turn it into a house hack bnb.What I've learned so far....- Trust but VERIFY everything on the buy side.

Consider replacing central air at the same time if you have it.

Hello BiggerPockets Community,I'm embarking on an exciting journey to acquire and renovate a duplex from 1900, aiming to tackle the inherent challenges of outdated insulation and the lack of modern vapor and air barriers.
