I will say we generally have no trouble keeping ours full and we focus on having nice, clean, safe spaces.

It was the owner of the house and a couple of neighborhood teens who handled the demo and clean up.

She realizes after we paid her and contractors she hired over $5,000 to get it painted , cleaned etc that we are out of money and she agreed to not charge us anymore but is still somewhat helping us and showing to potential renters .We have discussed different terms as I told her from her on out we can’t afford the monthly rate anymore .  

I use Resort Cleaning and it links perfectly to Hospitable to automate my cleaners.Ultimately though, all 3 platforms are excellent and will do what you need them to do.

Make it clean, de-risk the exchange process and simply your costs for the exchange.

And most will be able to pay the taxes when they come due, and put on a new roof, and put on a new coat of paint.As well as replace the carpets, cut the grass on a regular basis, replace the windows, reseal the chimneys when the liners crack, etc..It's unlikely that that these homes will fall into the slum category in 10 years or so, and make the asset underlying the loan virtually worthless.Or just vanish when the place starts to fall apart too much, due to no down-payment (no skin in the game 100% loans).Said the lawmakers who approved this.

I would have hired a junk haul person to do the clean out instead of my contractor.

But get an LLC and rent from it personally...any cleaning expenses, paying your mortgage etc. come from the LLC's bank account, any outside money that you need to fund the account will be a capital contribution and then you will be able to do cost seg on that property.

2/3 of the units are singles/studios, so generally higher turnover, causing higher fees for clean outs and lease ups, etc, etcRecently had to get a "fire rated" door to the roof replaced from some city inspection, the first  bids were $3800-$4500, but with the right contractors and a little of my own time and motivation, i got the job done for less than $1500 and 12 hours of my time, and it had 2x the fire rating than the city required.

We added a mini split system, new floors throughout, rebuilt the deck, added windows, repaired waste lines, roof, siding, stucco, cleaned up the basement and remodeled the kitchen and bathrooms.
