There is a system we use called RUBS which is RUBS or Ratio Utility Billing System is a method of calculating a resident's utility bill based on occupancy, apartment square footage, number of beds, or some combination of factors.

This proves why the state messing with the property tax rate is not going to make much if any difference when they can just pick whatever appraisal value they want out of the air.There is a local newspaper columnist that is advocating that everyone dispute their appraisal and go to the review board in order to break the system.

@Shashank R. to be clear the 255k figure was part of my original pre-rehab appraisal.

If they're old galvanized pipes they're probably all rusted out anyways and it's nice to have a whole new pex system.

Oxford House and their amazing systems/business.

I just had a 700 sq ft house brought from R-9 to R-39 for $525, and the utility company sent me a rebate check for 30% of that cost. 

Not everyone enjoys the calls for a septic system backing up into the basement, tenants that can't afford to pay the rent or even when your best tenants are buying a house and you need to find new tenants. 

So we are no way experience at all.Here is the info:- 3 UNITS - 2BD/1BA - 1 UNIT - 1BD/1BA- GYM ON PROPERTY UNDER UNIT 1- SECURITY SYSTEM IN EACH UNIT WITH 3 OUTDOOR CAMERAS- POOL WITH LARGE PARTY DECK- STONE FIRE PIT- SOLID SURFACE COUNTERTOPS- ENGINEERED WOOD FLOORS- STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCE PACKAGE-Potential Rent Calculated to be: $1,800, $2,700, and $2,800.As a noobie investor looking to get experience, I thought I would help my father move down and help run the property, find tenants, market, manage, etc. until I can systemize it and move back to Boston, MA (where we are currently located).

I'm not even close to actually looking for an investment property yet, I'm just trying to learn the systems.
