That does not qualify as "managing repairs."

@Scott ChampionRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

LOTS to talk about in Calgary as quality multi-family deals are being snapped up quickly, multiple offers on handyman specials, and parts of the city is experiencing Sellers Market, while the CIty of Calgary has decided to continue their major capital reinvestment projects, so there will be emerging areas soon!

Whether it's mold, COVID, or a non-paying renter, a quality PM acts quickly and decisively to protect people, property, and the landlord.If you feel the PM was negligent in their response, you can file a complaint with the state commission.

Maintenance and repairs typically range from 5-7% of rental income, compared to the standard 10%, as new builds have fewer immediate issues.

.- You could also try selling to another naive investor, but you don't have the infrastructure to do so easily. 2) You'll need to evict the tenant if you haven't already.3) Have 2-3 agents tour the property and take videos of their recommendations of repairs.4) Review all of these to create consensus Scope Of Work (SOW). 5) Get 2-4 bids on the SOW6) Review bids to determine cost effectiveness of what to actually do.

With a full time job even 15 units gets tough between collecting rent keeping repairs up, preventative maintenance, looking for new deals, managing refinances, etc.
