Every area I know has gotten worse and worse and worse on it.Fifteen years ago,  when I was buying, rehabbing houses and holding, I oculd hire a licensed contractor and they were able to change toilets, faucets, even water heaters.

I had a client buy an REO property and there was a water leak.

Scheduled to open in the summer of 2019, the $51 million, five- story, 267-unit development will be a large and distinctive presence on the east side of Water Street.- In the past five years, Mobile has experienced a 33% increase in manufacturing jobs compared with about 8% nationally.- McGowin Park developed a huge retail space in 2015 which consists of: 199,500- square-foot retail shopping center containing a future expansion area, five restaurant "pads" and 4.5 acres of outparcel development, and the west development consists of a 148,000-square-foot anchor store with an associated gas station, an 89,600-square-foot shopping center and 7.41 acres of outparcel area.

Hey @Adam Hoeker some my clients use QuickBooks, and it is definitely a great and industry standard accounting tool.

Section 8 can provide a steady and reliable source of income from government-backed rent payments, but with that said, make sure to do your research on the local market to ensure demand, and be prepared to meet the property standards required by the program.

You can also use a standard board of realtor lease template.

Many lenders will consider this commercial use, so a standard DSCR program will not lend to it. 

Water heaters need replacing, bank errors occur, tenants move out, real estate bubbles happen, etc. 

Dimensions and layouts on these are mostly standardized so you shouldnt have any problem unless the existing cabinets are custom built for the space.

With that in mind we are navigating the waters between two very murky districts that both want the same things, but don’t communicate between one another.
