During this waiting period, consider house hacking, where you live in a multi-unit property and rent out the extra space for additional income.

Hey Daniel, If you are qualifying for a DSCR based loan, you do not have to do the extra step.

Probably an extra clause in the lease should be added in the future to insure the tenant accepts the property as is when it comes to these internal elements.

High interest rates body-slammed supply numbers in 2022, as I detailed last week.

Without a professional inspection and a detailed quote from a contractor, that estimate could be far off once you get your hands dirty.

You'll want to look at a trust as well to get an extra layer of protection.

Just on the business level for landlords to be as specific as possible with their requirements and give detailed line item dispositions. 

If it's $390 for a doorbell change, wired, all in... ummm... might be on the high-end but it's def. not 'gouging' and def. not unreasonable.... sorry I know it's not what you wanted to hear, again I encourage you to hire those services yourself and you will quickly realize that the trades will charge you the same or likely more, without providing you all the 'extras' like contacting your tenant, or accessing  your property on their own without you present and then locking up, posting it to your property account ledger, etc. etc. --- if they even take the small job at all.

That that extra due diligence time for the new commercial property would give you time to get your old ones sold.2.
