Per usual, @J Scott hit the nail on the head...This is a totally normal and routine request from a closing attorney.

Once you do a couple deals, all of this becomes routine and it seems like you are "signing a paper in the beginning" and not much else, but you have to keep in mind how much work you did to get to that point.  

While I routinely get requests from folks to be a colleague, I try to only accept if there is a reason. 

It'll come a little easier for you to find these deals once you get a routine.

Sawcut the floor and hooked the meter back up.The other location I am aware it may be a problem but even with having commercial insurance they don't check it during routine property inspections.

How do they manage routine maintenance?

Also, I would love to hear from investors on questions you ask that help you gain insight into a company that are outside the routine of "what is your vacancy rate"?

I suspect that PM companies recognize that over time they make more money on warzone properties anyways due to higher rate of turn-over and higher degree of damage by tenants.In my opinion the most important skills to being a good PM are being organized, having people skills, having specific routines for all the basic landlording duties, and having a command of the relevant state laws.I think one of the most difficult aspects of being a PM would be that not only will you need to establish rules and routines for your tenants, but you will also have to establish another set of rules and routines for your clients.

Routine, pure BS.  

Because of the recent back and forth among the titans, I thought it would be good to open a discussion of how to have it all.The premise basically is that sometimes a deal does not exactly fit into our normal routine of investing.
