In other news, water is wet.

However, I think some upcoming life changes may be the right opportunity for me to dip my toes in the water in real estate investing.I live in Pflugerville, TX (25 minutes from downtown Austin) and will soon be moving to Portland, OR, for my dream job.

Water from the well has sediments and water forms a yellow lining in toilet.

On some older properties where perhaps you have one water meter for 2-3-4 units or one gas meter for 2-3-4 units, or units that share hot water, something like that the owner might pay. 

Fill water tub with water a couple minutes( good time to tighten down toilet bolts and caps) caulk tub five minutes.

@Edreco AmosMiami’s market can be tricky for cash flow since condo fees and insurance costs can eat into your profits, especially with newer buildings or those near the water.

Then based on @Michael Baum's suggestion, I think I will have my cleaner and/or maintenance person do monthly/quarterly maintenance like using using enzyme based cleaners, grease fighting drain treatments and hot water flushing. 

@Marc Robinson what's the lot rent, who pays what utilities and what's the source of the water and sewer?

You said public water was available...would the lots require a septic system to be installed or is public sewer available? 

Don’t assume that you will have water.
