If you are going into MF make sure you have a lot of cash sitting on the sidelines for maintenance and repairs.

That's a mobile app for small handyman repairs lol!

If your credit ****** you need to hit up creditrepair.com or some other credit repair  company  and work on getting yp to about a 680 or more with you learning  from jerome.   

The truth is, they will keep playing games and milk you for every penny they can, then they will leave the house a mess and cost more with cleaning, repairs, and vacancy.

I looked into the maintenance option years back to discover a trend of:  apx. 8% monthly fee which only included rent collection (everything else from maintenance to turnovers etc, extra, and poor reputation on repairs.)

The house was flooded to the tune of $70,000 in repairs. 

Washer/dryers are often abused, so there's the initial cost of purchase and the risk of increased repairs.

I learned how to do many repairs myself, I showed all the homes myself, and I made it work.

Lowering your standards invites expensive evictions and repairs. 

The Only other deductions that I have right now are $154 for unpaid water bill, and $45 for the minor repairs mentioned (doorbell, blinds, shower).Questions for the group:Does $540 seem excessive for a cleaning charge, given the situation?
