Also remind them that they may be held responsible if a repair is necessary because they failed to change the filter.

(just looking for a ballpark here)- Average number of room turnovers per year - PadSplit says the average tenant stays 9 months- Average cost of each room turnover (room & carpet cleaning, repairs due to wear and tear)- Repairs and maintenance - how much are you typically setting aside for this?

It provides more clarity for me as this is new and uncharted territory - especially how the repairs/draws take place seeing that this was a vacant fixer-upper and the lender in 1st lien has a rehab loan.

Total cost (purchase + repairs) is 49,000, that is approx 64% of ARV, less than the recommended max of 70%.

I took on the challenge and repaired them both myself.Many people have told me that real estate isn’t worth the hassle, especially when starting out.

As a side note, most of the properties I have been targeting were Neighborhood grade C which are quite old and one of my concerns is that I may need to spend a lot of money on repairs and maintenance.I feel that I would need to wait a little bit more and maybe save more for my down payment and try to target Neighborhoods grade B.I’m trying to do an FHA loan and buy a house in my local market but even when I’m targeting properties between < 600,000 (which would be a 2Bed, 2 Ba in a good condition), my monthly payment would be around 5,000 which is impossible to pay for me.So, it has not been easy and it won’t be but I’ll keep looking until I find one property that meets my requirements and helps me to achieve my goals.

We did floors, and multiple interior repairs ourselves while living there.

The listing agreement would include within the commission property photos, a set number of “door-opener” tours, some hours of phone/Zoom consultation with a licensed agent to set a listing price and discuss offers, counter-offers, and closing mechanics.

Yes lots of moving pieces and honestly, I have NO clue how this gets settled - but what I have  a CLUE on is I have the rolodex of attorneys who I can pick up the phone, call and understand this process and know what questions to ask to understand the risk - such as - what if we petitioned the probate court to use an independent 3rd party (if we buy it)....
