@Vivian Yip  We just use a very generous utility cap. 

Landlords can enter a tenant's property for a variety of reasons, including: Making repairs or replacements Responding to a tenant's request Removing unauthorized window coverings Preventing waste of utilities Changing filters, testing, or replacing smoke detector batteries Inspections Helping with an emergency inside the unit Posting a notice of eviction"Research your state laws because some of your comments indicate a lack of understanding of the landlord/tenant laws where you are operating (like threatening the tenants to keep the security deposit if they don't respond to you, I doubt that is actually a valid reason to keep their deposit, or evicting for late payments, or charging the tenants for your warranty repairs because you missed your 11 month inspection window which was your responsibility, and it looks like your lease says you can charge up to 18% interest for unpaid fees, is that actually legal?).

Lots of investors utilize rentometer.com.

.- Good luck getting them to pay their portion for the duration of their lease- Be careful including utilities in the rent as they then won't care about a running toilet resulting in a $500 water bill.- S8 tenants don['t want to pay application fees- S8 tenants cry broke about paying security deposits- S8 tenants in the program for 10+ years claim ignoreance on filling out their paperwork because they've learned a desperate landlord will do it for them.If you want a S8 tenant, you MUST advertise on www.AffordableHousing.com

Hi Gavin,This is fairly common, and it’s great that you’re thinking ahead about how to handle utilities responsibly.

Cost segregation can be utilized for many different scenarios such as new construction, properties already owned and newly purchased properties.

This change has helped generate more bookings, but it comes with a trade-off: guests booking single nights on Fridays or Saturdays might prevent full weekend bookings.Lowered PricesWe’re utilizing PriceLabs for dynamic pricing and have reduced our rates to stay competitive during the off-season.Listed on Furnished FinderWe created a Furnished Finder account to target mid-term stays, which I hoped would solve our slow-season problem.

So far, it's been an effective strategy, and I've gotten some really good returns utilizing it.I think more property managers should consider it.

Im at a 780 credit score , under 10% utilization, 13-14 positive mix tradelines 0- late payments but I cant get into the 800's and its because my old morgage is no longer showing . 

So it's pretty hard to break 5% utilization.
