My friend scheduled for the electricity to be turned off after the tenant assured them that they would be gone by September 30. 

@Dee Mandrekar highly doubtful there's such a big difference between market rent and S8 rent.First off, the GROSS S8 amount includes specific amounts for all utilities - electric, gas, water, trash, etc.We do NOT recommend including utilities in the rent because S8 only pays a certain amount and the owner is then exposed to tenant abuse of utilities. 

What's the condition of major systems like plumbing, electrical, and roofing?

Ceiling fans need to be secured differently than a basic ceiling to be stable and this is of course electrical work so allowing a tenant to potentially do it is a liability issue if they got injured. 2.

It was expensive but included commercial liability, premises liability, alcohol, a bed bug extension if needed, and so forth.

I’m moving out of the house soon and will be living rent-free with my wife at my parents' place in the Bay Area due to some recent life changes.Here’s a breakdown of my situation:Location: Sacramento, CA (4 bed, 2 bath, recently renovated)Current mortgage payment: $3,940/month (including escrow)Mortgage balance: $475,000Current home value: $515,000 - $535,000 (based on comps)Rental estimate: Property management companies are quoting $2,600/month (with fridge/washer/dryer included), but some websites suggest it could go for up to $3,000/month.Planned budget:$540/month for capital expenditures and maintenance$100/month for lawn careTenant to cover utilities (gas, electricity, water)7.5% vacancy rateWe bought the house thinking it would be our forever home, but with our current situation, I’m trying to figure out the best long-term plan.

At 1 community there is a year round contract for 3 bed-bug extermination heating units, year round, and there at work 24-7.     

Old electric, just all the issues.

A good rule - as long as the plumbing and electric has been updated, a well-built home from the mid-20th century is a better investment and will likely outlast a newer build.Credit to the respective author

It's very similar to a bug bomb.
