One unit has a pool and hot tub.

Most owners are local and therefore “hot” money or out of area players are not yet chasing Pittsburgh assets, keeping prices favorable.References United States Census Bureauhttp://www.cmu.edu/news/stories/archives/2017/august/economic-impact-report.htmlMarcus & Millichap 2017 Multifamily Investment Forecast2017 Commercial Real Estate Trends Report by Integra Realty Resourceshttp://www.pittsburghmagazine.com/Pittsburgh-Magazine/September-2017/Staying-CMU-All-Eyes-on-Carnegie-Mellons-Future/http://www.nextpittsburgh.com/features/pittsburgh-developments-watch-2017/

I remember once I was in a nice area of ATL at a closing and the attornies office was hot I asked whats up he said his two condenser got stolen that night LOL.. its a very active sport out East of the rockies we just dont hear of this on the west coast..

On some older properties where perhaps you have one water meter for 2-3-4 units or one gas meter for 2-3-4 units, or units that share hot water, something like that the owner might pay. 

I can say there are specific custodians we like to work with who are streamlined and smooth process and some who make the process a lot more labor intensive, and have had two investors using the same custodian and have one tell us we need to complete this form and the same custodian tell their other client that its a different form.

The hot tub gets all the praise haha. 

Care for yard, repairs, and hot tub. 

No matter how hot you think your PMC is - there are investors who still do not find value in what PMs do.

In the metro-G.R. area where this is, I am, it is difficult to purchase anything that cash flows to rent otherwise, and it is a very hot market yet. 

Cash flow is possible, but it also is not necessary to retire off of RE.Good luck and I wish you the bestI fill out a spreadsheet w/ the bigger ticket items - roof, siding, AC (this one has a mini split), hot water heater, flooring.
