@Tak OgiharaMy first reaction after reading your list was: Isn't that enough???

One recent property I bought the listing agent disclosed that it needed new sewer lines.

We have made the decision to list the place for rent and then simply communicate the situation with the tenant. 

@Paul Bogard Any real estate agent who promotes themselves as an agent who is a specialist on renting out bedrooms should be moved to the bottom of the list of people to take real estate advice from..... 

It is shocking how many get redeemed in the last 48 hours before the close of the auction.If the properties listed were beyond their redemption period such that I Knew they were really going to be sold, I would start looking at these again.  

I'd move quickly if you're eyeballing that $59k listing that just popped up.  

As I'm sure most of you know, a long-term rental is simple since the only recurring expense I own is the mortgage, whereas with a STR I'll own the mortgage, internet, utilities, furnishings, cleaning fees, etc. which just makes my projections a bit foggier.I'm looking for feedback on the below expenses and wondering what else I should be thinking about, that I don't currently have listed.

Sometimes if that is an approval verse a bank account showing $500K for example, the agent on the list side may need a little education on what you are looking to do, I always have the lender call the agent in this situation to get them on board to get the listing agent more on board. 

I spoke with the listing agent and we went back and forth with the owners who inherited the property.

I’m also working to develop a list of contractors and handyman services in the area.
