So before you get ready to attempt to rip your Landlord a new one, first go take it up with the local taxing authority, then go have it out with the insurance industry, then gripe to the neighborhood HOA (if applicable), then maybe settle your disputes with Home Depot/Lowes and any and all trade contractors.

I'm particularly passionate about real estate investing in flips and long-term rentals.Outside of real estate, I enjoy running, cycling, and playing with my dog.

I have a great general contractor and agent that tours the homes, does the work, and finishes up punch list items.

Ensure you have a detailed renovation plan and consider obtaining quotes from multiple contractors to validate this estimate.Rental Estimates Your projected rents of $2,000 and $2,600 seem promising.
