Vacancies, economic vacancy (like the "two months free" you mention), advertising, utilities when vacant, evictions, tenant damage (brand new or not, tenants can still do damage), CPA, Lawyer, maintenance, property management, etc.

However, who is currently paying the utilities?

$1310.08 Utilities/taxes?

Find out what they are renting for and what utilities are included and set your rents with the current market.

I will not be bringing in sewer or water so only the two utilities.

Sold off many of them and went down to the bare essentials but building the collection back up with top of the line pieces.I do have to say that for all this time, I never shot sporting clays until fall 2 years ago.

You will have to support that building out of your own pocket while you are renovating and while you are finding tenants to fill it.I suggest that you do not pay utilities, so if utilities are not separated, figure the cost of doing so into your expenses before you decide what you want to offer.You should be able to get a close estimate of taxes from the assessor's office-- taxes will go up when you purchase, but taxes are usually a % of assessed value, so not hard to figure.I suggest you check with the local fire marshall to see if the building needs to be brought up to code.

This time I scared the deadbeats into deediing it back, saving me $1200 or so in attorney fees, and got a $2000 insurance settlement check from them for some damage caused by "vandals"-probably their tenants as these guys were, unknown to me, trying to be landlords without having a clue what they were doing.Anyway I've been working on it for 3 weeks, on thier utilities and insurance and now have a contract for $100K.

I have played many sports and many for years, football, baseball, basketball, soccer, golf, swimming and water polo.

I would also utilize some of the great tech tools that are out there, especially virtual flyers and vids syndicated through youtube, yahoo, truveo etc.
