As she sees it, there are many more potential liabilities with dogs.But I do know that for cats she has a strict policy on up-to-date vaccinations, spaying/neutering, and a tacit expectation that they are either declawed or their claws regularly trimmed.

Home Depot for flooring and bath fixtures, and a local building supply for dimensional lumber, windows and trim. 

Example for my market: - water heater $1600 (lower end of licensed plumber cost), 12.5 years (150 months) $10.67/month- roof (asphalt shingle) 2 br, 2ba typical size ~$10k licensed, 20 year life span $41.67/monthkitchen, exterior paint, flooring, plumbing, electrical, fencing, tree trimming (I have a property where the tree trimming is one of the larger maintenance/cap ex items at over $1k/year), bathrooms.  

I also subcontracted out the Electrical work, & Tile Work to other contractors.Contracted Work w/ ContractorDemolition $800 Labor only (no dumpster)Site Work (exterior cleanup) $200 Labor onlyNew Deck $4,000 L&MExterior Doors & Windows $1,250 Labor only Drywall & Framing $6,500 L&MCabinetry Installation $1,225 Labor only Interior Doors & Trim $2,080 Labor only Plumbing Work $2,860 L&MTotal $18,915Unfortunately, on this project the Contractor stopped showing up, and the writing was on the wall that we weren't going to get the project completed on time for us to move in, so I had to do some of this myself.  

I get the new construction with the tabs and redo all the trim.

The trim needs paint, sure, but they aren't rotting out.

When I looked at the property I saw no issues with the up keep and everything looked well kept except for a few normal wear and tear issues with the trim or paint.My issue is I have no idea how to go about getting set up with Section 8 and the property management company that I will be using said they do not manage section 8. 

They’ve put in new flower beds and trimmed the bushes.

Trim number seems high unless you're going all out?

Personally we have trimmed our investment portfolio and positioned to take advantage of high inflation.
