So thankfully with the help of my mentor and his crew of Six, we were able to complete all prep and are amidst our final pass for sanding floors before our water-based polyurethane. 

They are my favorite, because they are cheap and snap together higher, which better protects from splashing water.

It will be quicker I am assuming and will save money on my construction loan interest as a result but want to hear some other thoughts from others with more experience with new builds.for some context I am in Dutchess county ny, property has public sewer/water. 

For example: Landlord will pay for electric, water and sewer charges up to $100 per month.

doors need to be power washed, gutter needs to discharge further from foundation (deck is uneven and breaking, possibly due to water erosion?)

Side note; if you google 46218 the only photo that shows up is a gross water damaged basement. 

Water in San Diego is real expensive.  

Wood Floors not sealed, tile not properly installed and grouted, cheap flat paint that the tenants can't wipe finger prints or food splashes off, countertops not caulked so water gets behind causing water damages, the cabinets were painted over not replaced the list goes on and on.

Subtract $350 for HOA dues, maybe another $400-$500 for electric and internet, and potentially water bills. 

Shared laundry meant a fifth utility meter and high water costs that I paid.
