still good potential for families looking for a home to rent and prefer more privacy. depending on the home, area ,etc. maybe a better caliber renter and less turnover of you can find a long term renter. make certain to still do background checks and try to get them to maintain the lawn, etc. they should pay electric and heat but keep the water bill in your name but still try to bill them for it.

Morning,I purchased a property to flip and have to pulled permits for general rehab electrical, stucco, framing, plumbing and I am adding on another bedroom.In order to get the project moving I used owner / builder to pull permits.  

My first experience with a special assessment is with a condo we lived in, the HOA fell behind in paying for electricity of the common area and gas for central heat.

Water heater, Electrical, furnace, AC, etc.... 

Electricity is separately metered on all three.I contacted a mortgage broker.

It is a garage in the back that has plumbing and electric already run to it.

Real estate kind of went by the way side as I was working different jobs and building my electrical business.Last year I was working at a home that was in rough shape when the neighbor told me it was for sale.

We do have electricity.

Water, sewer, trash - on the owners, tenants pay electric and gas.Judging by the rental price per unit in 2011 ($540/mo per unit) it has a lot of deferred maintenance.

Also, a possible electrical upgrade in order to get financing.
