If a PM handled similar situations, they would be using their HVAC go to technician, they would take a certain % of the total and add ontop of it for themself, parts would probably get marked up, it would be like 3x. 

How would you handle the situation if you ever encountered one?

I manage properties remotely and can handle all the leasing/management pretty easily with my team.

We do not raise it to market rents, we keep it at lease 10% below to try and reduce turnover.

The flat fee buyer agency fee reduces the amount of the buyer credit/refund, generally by $6,000 (although options range from $999 to $8999, depending on how much help the buyer wants from the agent).

Some other investors had purchased it to flip it and decided they had too many projects going to handle one this big.

If I were to reduce or take out the vacancy, the 2 would cashflow.

I have experience handling this in Michigan with my short-term rental.

I'm not familiar with your market, but here are some thoughts:750 Sq ft is small for a 3/1.Interior looks like a flip but it seems like it has been owned by the sellers for a long time...so maybe not.They have been trying to sell this property for 6 months and have reduced price.
