In our lease agreement we use we put that the tenant if they break the lease are responsible for any marketing cost, tenant placement cost, and other associated cost of replacing the tenant. 

Looks like consensus says they are not worth the cost, thanks all!

We're looking to build a 3 flat.What is the cost to build a 3 flat and 2-car garage? 

Here's a breakdown based on your examples:Carpet, Vinyl Flooring, New Toilet, New Vanity, New Tub: These items are typically considered assets because they are permanent improvements to the property that provide lasting benefits.Plumber Labor for remodel: Labor costs for installation or repairs are generally categorized separately from materials.

Minimal risk, cost, etc. 

It could cost more.

Frankly, I wouldn't feel comfortable owning a condo long term due to rising HOA costs and major assessments.

If so, you could look more for turnkey properties and focus on learning to manage them effectively.

So many amateur landlords make big mistakes that cost them far more than a professional PM ever would.3.

I could get that in a stock market index fund with a whole lot less hassle and risk.If I were to mortgage it (assuming I even could, what with the fractional ownership) it would be 340k purchase with 20% down @ 5.5% = 68k down pmt and 1823/mo (22k/yr) in mortgage costs.
