Calling this cash flow is correct, but also causes confusion when you shift to a tax discussion.

If you didn't budget your rehab correctly, and don't have access to more money, you will be stuck (this is also true if you buy with cash without any excess money).  

I didn't hear this from Buyers, but I personally am tired of seeing it.The previous 3 years we strictly did the grey/white, but now thats out least built color scheme.

Asking in the correct forum will get a better response.Read the RULES!

Yes, there are bad areas and appreciation probably won't happen...but rents are not declining, there are great tenants if you screen correctly, and even the C neighborhoods generate great $.

One additional thought: a disregarded LLC might work for you if structured correctly.

I don't think that's a good strategy because you can never time when the correction happens.

However, if for example, the company did not install or disconnect the washer and dryer correctly (such as leaving a valve on) while water is turned off prematurely, causing damage, what language do you put in the Lease to also hold other parties accountable such as ALE and appliance install company?   

I would add that you can go a long way just having some clean color schemes (two wall colors and one trim color will do almost any house) and a few tasteful accent pieces. 

@Brandon Croucier That isn't correct... state laws allow you to enter the property within certain time periods, normally 24 hrs, with or without permission.
