In most cases, the math will pan out that those higher costs are nothing compared to what a lower rate will save you in the long term.

The property that I saw was located in GA so I'm not sure if that would make the cost per unit more or less.I will definitely check out that spreadsheet and see how the number pan out.on your deal are you going to have to renovate all or some of the units also if you don't mind me asking.

This one is most likely on you...plumbing issues that are normally those of the tenants are those that are visible - like a clogged kitchen sink or toilet. 

I am replacing a few floor decking sheets, replacing the entire bathroom in one tore walls out put in new studs, tub, toilet, etc. 

I use $50 per month minimum You can call a plumber and ask him how much he will charge to repair leaking faucet or toilet.

I've seen those in tank to bowl bolt for toilet parts but did you have any specific product link you can share?

Where im at, homes started selling above MARKET price, and once people saw that, they started jacking up the prices, only to have to lower them later because they weren't getting any offers.. they were trying to get covid prices and then some, and it looked like it wasn't really panning out

Another issue with providing utilities that people don't usually think about, is that a running toilet causes a huge water bill. 

Thank you everyone for the feed back, unfortunately the deal didn't pan out.

I will definitely keep your contact on hand if the local route doesn't pan out.
