But there are some basic bid issues owners are often unreasonable about:1) There really isn't time to get multiple bids- No heat during winter or ac during summer can often result in a municipal ticket or worse2) The job is too small to get bids- Estimated cost is $700 - how is saving 5-10% worth the time getting bids?

Most people would rather spend or save their money, so someone who is willing to invest it should be compensated appropriately.

It’s a cost, but it saves time and headaches.5.

Over 2K a month in costs savings to the building.

I used a property manager (before I was one) for (1) time & headache savings and (2) the value the property managers provide by economies of scale (marketing, discounts with vendors, etc.).

If you sell, you could access the equity you’ve built and put it toward other investments or save for a future down payment.

It wasn’t pretty, but that’s how I scaled up buying and holding 29 SFR without using my savings to acquire these houses.

What would you save in captial gains on the $360k if you sold now?

They had to refinance it to basically kind of save the house now that everything is kind of on track she wants to renovate the property.

I would love to add actual dressers but the rooms in most of the apartments are quite small so I am not sure how to resolve without getting closet systems.
