Hey David,To be honest, this bill just hit my radar on Thursday.

They will be prorated on the HUD, but you may have to make a payment in between, depending on how the county bills them.

Here is my situation :I am 40 years old, I have no mortgage, and my only bills are my car lease, phone bill, car insurance (my partner covers utilities) and groceries for me, girlfriend and my kids (when I have them) and my take home from my day job is about $900 a week.

Everything Ken said plus plaster walls, no insulation, higher electric bills, walls sweating when its humid in florida and the resident leaves front door open, damp smelly houses, Pealing paint, wood rot, old windows, crawl space under the home, bdrm and closet doors that don't close properly, electric locks that the old front door doesn't like as the door is not aligned correctly, Cyrstal knobs that fall off, old thermostats with 2 lines but my new thermostat needs 3 lines, critters in the fireplace....

A landlord will often get a HUGE water bill because the tenant doesn't care, so won't alert their landlord, about a running toilet. 

She says the average water bill is about $40/month which equates to Gross income of about $1800/month currently.

They were supposed to bill based on hours (different rates for framers, drywallers, supervisors, etc.), and send me invoices every week.However, they never sent me the invoices each week, and when I asked about the overall cost of the project toward the end of may (the project started in May), they told me $35,000 so far.

She has come around a little bit seeing that many of our bills in the duplex are paid by the rent and we each get a little bit of money each year from the cash flow.

s, first rent of the newly created unit must be equal to the combined rent of the two previous RS units..in addition, newly created unit will still be regulated, NYS senate just passed bill S2980C..Substantial rehab is the only remaining strategy, which is not cost effective in the current market

Like @Bill B. said, the way to eliminate the taxes is for him to stay on title (as long as he has also been reporting the property on his taxes) until he passes away.
