they give up too soon. no one in history ever got anywhere by giving up. you can still do the drive bys even though you seem to be quite busy. your best deals will come when you aren't even looking. i found one of my better deals while talking to a woman i was putting in a toilet for, of all things. take a different route to school everyday. you haven't been everywhere yet. its out there, find it. 

3-If they all pan out with your bottom line, do you then choose one?

What it does, is it allows you to add water right to the stove into the pans without transporting them from one place to another.

It's like throwing money down the toilet.

They did, but of course they didn't clean the place when they left, and they flushed a washcloth down the toilet and we ended up paying the week's worth of water/sewer.Anyway....a bad vibe at this point won't likely get better.

The building has been stripped and the former owner ran out of money so the units are void of kitchens and baths (and a bunch of other stuff too, but thats a separate issue we have a handle on).I would be grateful if the community would chime in and provide a rough estimate to install new kitchens and baths for the following units:(2) SFR 4bd 2ba (6) Units 2bd 1ba(7) Units 1bd 1baThe work will require everything cabinets, sinks, tubs, showers, and toilets (please if possible specify whether you're including flooring into the estimate so we don't also include it in our flooring budget).

As of now, I'm looking to get a really good toilet and a bathroom exhaust vent that is on a timer.

It is ready to rent save needing a new toilet and carpet or tile in the "2nd" bedroom.

If the expense benefits just the rented unit such as a toilet repair it is 100% deductible.

Welcome to the glamorous world of tenants and toilets!
