We were not able to recover any yard damages due to other damages they had left that needed repair, which empted out their security deposit.

Also some plumbing repairs were needed but nothing major. 

Even if you hire a PM you have to constantly coordinate all of this, and next thing you know, every month you are hearing about doing this repair or not, tree branches, sewer system, and evicting tenants.

I ended up putting in $20k for light cosmetic repairs, which then allowed me to bring rents up to market.

Compared to rehabbing where the asset is already there regardless of the repairs needed.

I need a list of sites which allow you to shop for and/or buy commercial real estate.

@Tiffani HollisFor a long-term rental, I’d avoid used dishwashers entirely—repair costs and reliability issues often outweigh the savings.

Be sure to factor in property management costs, repairs, and potential vacancy periods.

Updating and repairing.

My advice would be to shop for a PMC as an employer the same way you would if you were a landlord.
