@Gulliver R. you may be including in supplies, but this category can include coffee, other beverages, condiments, paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, etc.

If the apartment toilets continue to flush OK, the sewer line may actually be clear and fine.

Of the few sellers that are even interesting at all, you guessed it, 90-95% of them will not pan out, ever.Even with those numbers, you can make it happen.

I like that you are open to renting the project out if selling doesn't pan out. 

Since about April of last year rental rates and occupancy has been in the literal toilet.

No matter how good your systems are you will likely end up in that city a few times per year at least, especially in the early years.With that being said, once you have your core team established in long-distance investing, it becomes much easier and problems equal google searches for vendors, phone calls and book keeping in your life (project management) vs. swinging the hammer or fixing a toilet yourself because you're forced to put those systems in place.I live in a similarly expensive city and would honestly be stoked to find a duplex in Denver for $600K!

Everything Paige said and a few more.All vehicles must be licensed, tabbed and operableNo water beds, pools, portable heaters, portable dishwashers, portable clothes washers or dryers shall be used on the premises without prior written consent of agent/owner.No dust, sand, dirt, rubbish, coffee grounds, feminine products or other foreign material shall be flushed or washed down toilets,sinks, or wash basins.

How specific can you get in your lease when it comes to tenants responsibility for repairs of things to the house related to negligence, ie flushing sanitary products down toilets, appliances, hoa fines related to negligence of caring for the yard or following hoa rules etc? 

In those cases, making it easier to evict someone doesn't prevent them from putting rocks or cement in your toilet.

It remains to be seen whether or not this law passes or another like it, but whereas we were at one point heavily-considering a second rental property here, we're holding off until we get a clearer sense as to how this will pan out.
