My thoughts were to do light rehab and raise the rents as people moved out which is what I have done so far, however.....

Light rail, development coming through but the homes were built over 100 years ago and there is still some crime.

Discussions on topics like this are very beneficial for BP Investors to follow as it can bring light to the mindset of many who still apply their outdated and antiquated strategies.I'll bet everyone reading this topic will for now on (when possible) will round up or down though!

In the meantime, I would like know where to look for decent contractors to perform some light repair and renovation work?

No matter how much rehab a property has had nobody will pay Class A rents in a Class C neighborhood.Plus, the nature and scope of the project could mean anything from light value-add on 20 units to deep value-add on 300+ units.

They let u know when someone is having overnight guests too often, when someone is leaving lights on.

You'll be fine assuming you've done your calculations correctly and take your time while screening tenants (there's a bunch of multiplexs in over-town that are currently being rehabbed with no issues - run really cheap.powerful motion sensored lights and install high fencing). 

(e) Electrical lighting, outlets, wiring and electrical equipment which conformed to applicable law when installed and are maintained in good working order.

The property is located in FL if anyone can shed some light on how hard is it to receive an easement, please.
