The reason I ask is the manager might not know where to get the best contractors at the best pricing.They might be calling someone out of the phone book etc.Those companies mainly do retail jobs and will do an occasional investor job and be slightly lower in price but not much.If you find a contractor that does investors jobs for their main business they understand you need a low price.They get in fast and complete and make money with volume of deals versus up charging fat profits on retail deals.The most expensive cost of tiles is the cost per sq ft to install them.Regular guys wants something crazy like 3 to 4 sq ft.You have to find someone to do the labor for cheap that lays tiles and that is the key.Make sure the property manager is not building in a fee for themselves into the bid or there is a main contractor using subs to up charge you.

F = At least 2 of these criteria are met: within 2 blocks of a homeless shelter, multiple houses within 2 blocks that are burned out/boarded up, recent murders or shootings have taken place there; while you were asleep, someone drove by your rental and shot at/through it,a police officer was shot within 2 blocks

Always Remeber: Pigs get fat, Hogs get slaughtered

Convinced that nobody can read, I started putting "two animals max" without the weight limit in my ads and now I have renters with a little chihuahua, a dachshund. a small lab mix and a fat housecat.

They think that as uneducated chicken mcnuggets should get a piece of that fat pie.

#'s are essential, but even great numbers can result in a big fat $0 with poor relationships and/or poor management. 

You want plenty of fat for carrying costs because these loans are reimbursement loans.
