They can replenish supplies for you.You can get a handyman to take care of small issues.Think about it this way is the PM doing much more than hiring out everything that you can hire out?

In addition, you still have to replenish it once things get back to normal.

Appraisal came in at $100,000 and given one local bank in my town will lend at 85/15 LTV, I could have pulled out all of my original capital plus some, however, to be conservative chose to just pull out initial investment of $70k so that HELOC could be replenished for next purchase.

Once an investor has enough money in the bank to handle any major repair, and enough cash flow to replenish that reserve, they pretty much let things be and move on.

Again, I feel like if you leave any money in--especially tens of thousands of dollars--that this ads up and you have to keep replenishing your capital.

Then add in toiletries and a small percentage for replacing towels and sheets or anything minor that might need replenishing. 

I'm assuming at a certain # of units you could always just hold and replenish the cap ex pool instead of continuing to put more $ into it.Putting these in my notes and calculations NOW.THANKS!!

(I'm "they")BRRRR method is the best way to recycle the same money if you have no additional (or not a lot) of replenishing income from a day job.

Post close the property is wrapped into a commercial mortgage, replenishing the line of credit capital. 

Again, I would like to focus on what moves will replenish the funds faster to reinvest quicker, if that makes sense.
