It makes going forward much easier for you since you will likely have a revolving door of new tenants. 

So much of the negotiations revolve around the listing agent acting ethically.

CAM $1750 month T/I $2500 month.

Its a revolving door of sign hangers too, they don't last long.

Hi Everyone,Recently on my drive for dollars I cam across a 3 flex that is listed as a HUD property.

It's like a revolving door - A interviews B, B interviews C, C interviews A and B...   

The USGS also has some live stream web cams, like this one in Florence SC, that can be helpful when trying to gauge conditions at times like this when the Carolinas are experiencing widespread flooding.

If you have not been charging them for taxes and insurance all this time and you want to first start now, they will likely require a reduction in the base rent to account for the additional amounts paid to you for "CAM", so you should end up relatively even unless they are using a ton of utilities or taxes have gone up a ton, etc.You can have them direct deposit your rent, or set up an auto pay to your account.

@Joanna Golden Deductibility of expenses revolves around the "in-service" date, which is tax talk for when the property is in a livable condition and advertised for rent.Once the property is placed in service, operating expenses can be deducted in full, even if there isn’t any rental income just yet.
