That way if it ever comes back on you (which I doubt it will) you have a corroborating witness.

Combine that wit a PM and now the property looks less attractive even though you theoretically increase your CoC.

We have maintenance install the washer and dryers so they are hooked up correctly.We use teflon tape,the steel braided hoses wit the high quality washers on the inside.Where the discharge hose goes into the drain we install a strap to the wall so the discharge hose won't fall out when draining and leak.Even given all that if they have an old washer it can give out and water can be released.The simple fix is a drain pan under the washer with a pipe that ties into the discharge pipe in the wall.All of this will cost about 40 bucks or so not including labor.Well worth it than cleaning up a huge leak causing massive damage.We also check the hot and cold water valves the supply lines hook into from the washer.The valves might be gone and partially leaking.Also if the tenant installs the washer and dryer they might over tighten fittings causing bent pipes and damage or under tighten having leaks.Been my experience with over 20 units on a 30 year old building.

Then again im glad that most dont see things the same way...The beauty of being an entrepreneur and investor!

Someone has to make up this fee or the swimming pool turns into a beautiful flower garden.In all the rentals that I've had, I would have a hard time in advance determining who are the better people and who are not.

The cheap floor does not go with the rest of this beautiful home.

You can have a beautiful property to sell that is a cut above the others without breaking the bank.Remember that you aren't going to live there.

However, we didn't factor in closing costs, delays and commissions.If we had sold for 95, after everything was said and done we probably wouldn't have even broken even.However, once we were finished with the job, we realized it was such a beauty that we listed it for 130.

Granted, that figure is not to make it look beautifully renovated, but still.

So many trees, and the beautiful Sacramento River!
