👌  @Justin Cabral I highly recommend going to jakeandgino.com for Multifamily investing I've learned so much in such a short time...seriously... reading the blogs, listening to the podcasts, they also have a book and several Udemy.com courses that are to the point and detailed or coaching options...no B.S. garbage like a lot of those crappy scumbag "guru" courses  that are out there...these guys are legit and really do want to help people.

Another thing is to check who pays the water,sewer, garbage.  

The garbage dispenser was also fairly new and they clogged it so we reset it worked for a couple days and then had to buy a new one.

I use craigslist but scour through 50-100 properties per day and get one or two deals a month (click here to find out how to weed through the garbage).

Nothing I could have done would have led me to believe they were a garbage tenant.  

Ask if they updated anything, mechanical, roofing, wiring. what rents can be expected - will you be able to see leases. what are current expenses - water/sewer, taxes, garbage, electric, gas / oil, insurance. whats there usual vacancy rate ( just because it's next to a campus does not mean it's a gold mine). check if there is plenty of parking, are there laundry machines there 9 coin / card) how old are they, Appliance ages. any pest control/ termites have to be taken care of. whats the law on how many students can be in one dwelling ( normal is 4 but i have read on this board that some areas only allow 3) - that will make a difference in your incomeyou do not want to buy the place not knowing that the appliances and roof are 15+ years old and all sudden have to fix/ buy all new.

I charge them to change air filters, clean the carpet, wipe out the stove, pull a screw out of the garbage disposal, haul of trash left in the garage, etc.I only have your side of it and no knowledge of your laws, management agreement, or lease agreement, but based on what you've told us, I would say you are probably paying far more than you should.My recommendation is for you to chalk this up as a learning experience and get the new tenant in.

If you Hang around garbage long enough then you start to stink . negativity breeds negativity 

The landlord seems nice just a bit awkward at times, but we learn to deal with him, but somewhere down the line maybe 3-5 years ago he started harassing us.He started throwing some of his trash in our garbage bin. 

Some are garbage.....the rest are garbage.
