Just keep an eye on how both markets are performing, and maybe start small, like taking out $50k, so you can test the waters without over-leveraging.

Ok, so maybe I am not getting it but I have a hot water boiler with separate zones for each unit.

Storm sewer, storm pond, sewer lines, water access, fire hydrants, public bathrooms, surface coverage, sidewalk or bike paths, setbacks, power lines and right of ways known and unknown, road access, etc. 5.

If that's the case, you would charge rent + utilities + water or just lump it into one rent fee.One thing to keep in mind is that friends often bail on deals like this once you get it so you have to be prepared to have to figure it out if you get the house and he isn't interested.

It would hold up to water or condensation from cups.

I also invested in improvements: new roof, water heaters, other major appliances, and a kitchen renovation.Now, my situation has completely shifted.

It was heartbreaking when we’d send them leases showing rent was $550 from their POS rental after they were under the impression and “getting” $850 month from the “freshly renovated” rental from ocean pointe.

Watch out for any water filtrations from the upstairs pool I have seen that happen in a couple of projects, make sure it's a good builder.I like boutique projects with fewer neighbors, more exclusive, less resale competition, and less rental & rate competition as well.

Have done tons of cleanouts on evictions too, nothing surprises me anymore on how some people can live.The hot water tank had things growing in the hot water overflowing, the refrigerator was tucked in a back shed area where everything inside had liquified. 

Where's the main water shutoff valve?
