You can write into the agreement that it is paid by the borrower, so in some instances it won’t cost you a penny to stay compliant.

@Chris Abkarians to build on what @Nathan G. stated, it never ceases to amaze us how "penny wise, but dollar foolish" investors can be!

You can get the same returns, or close to them, as you would by purchasing your own investments, but you wouldn't have to deal with tenants, toilets, or property managers.Earned every penny Nathan.

Just my two pennies. 

I would also swap old lighting fixtures for new ones, I chose copper ones to match the roof.

If I were the only one charging those fees in my market, nobody would come to me and my business would fail.Landlords are penny pinchers.

It sounds like a winner, but it's nice to confirm and see what your profits will be.If you're wise, you'll take every penny it earns and create a reserve fund to handle vacancies, maintenance, capital expenditures, etc.

FYI, all those spots CAN be repaired and fixed, then you could move on to a whole Roof Coating later on if you wanted to do that. 

It was definitely worth every penny.

It makes it even harder because we are hoping to stay as close to South End as possible, ideally the Dilworth area (I know I’ll have to pay a pretty penny for that).
