Dang.

@Mike A. did they provide invoices from the contractors for these expenses? 

Then he told me that anything that goes on the HUD I must have proof (i.e. an invoice).

Thank you all for adding fantastic input @David Clinton III, @Stone Jin, @Dan G., and to answer questions asked from @James Wise, I am a first time investor looking for a house hack.

Our original floors cost us $40k to install (we have the invoice) and we expected them to last 50 yrs, if not longer. 

Hi @Hien Dang I actually wasn't insinuating that you didn't want to pay anything.  

@Michael Dang - I'm concerned I'm speculating too much.

My schedule is starting to wane a bit My project is out of the critical  stage or I may just take the dang day off for a change. 

For cash basis businesses we may offer ideas to prepay bill's before they are due or to hold invoices.

Most passive income investors chart a middle course of involvement with quarterly or EOY audits, and what I call "Potty Audits" (perusing invoices on their phone while sitting on the toilet).
