(Trash, water sewer, landscaping, outside maintenance?) 

Things to consider:Does your PM upcharge on maintenance?

Since you have a pool and fireplace, it’s essential to include specific clauses addressing the use, maintenance, and liability related to those amenities to protect yourself legally.

Lease Management - Avail.co, Apartments.com, Buildium, TenantCloud,  - many others - they can List For Rent, Schedule Showings, Provide Applications, Screen Tenants, Setup Leases, Setup and Manage Rent Payment, and other things (keep track of maintenance, keep track of expenses and make reports for accountants etc) Tenants like it because its online and makes it clear what they need to do - This also helps answer Drews question to you. - Showing a property - I have less to say on this one, looking for ideas myself.

Add on top of that any maintenance issues that pop up (and they will eventually).

Here's the message from RentRedi: "During a routine review, our payment processor came across a transaction that they must do additional verification on.There was a transaction (#20) under cardholder name XXXXXXX  (amount: XXXXXXX).As this cardholder name doesn't match the tenant name (XXXXXXXXXXXX), further information is required about the cardholder:- Lease agreement - Cardholder name:- Billing address:- Cardholder phone number:- How the cardholder is associated with the tenant:Once this information is provided, I will relay this to the payment processor for review." 

Depreciation also is a huge benefit that you can keep going as long as you are investing in real estate.There's always ways to make your life easier without paying those pesky taxes.hi Dave, yes our accountant has indeed mentioned a possible 1031 into a vacation type property and said we could even use it for up to 2 weeks a year and then write off the travel costs to get there as part of yearly maintenance in IRS code. 

Does your lease say notify you in writing with maintenance issues?

Personally I'd disable, winterize, or remove it due to costs of maintenance.  

But you will hear how we respond when vacancies and unexpected maintenance issues arise.If you have trouble getting the feedback you seek, please contact me.
