Typically I try to stick to 2-4 bedroom single families as larger homes do not bring much more in rent but more in repairs.Thanks for sharing your experience.

I'm a construction cost estimator building my real estate network, and want to offer my experience to the BP forums.I've spent 3 years in residential estimating and 5 years in commercial estimating.

Does anyone have experience doing this and can show me how best to go about it? 

Look for signs of that because in my experience these people that are not on the lease and not liable for anything don't generally care the property.1. 

How you do that with the minimalistic approach that is also efficient and realistically can yield results?

Does anyone have suggestions or experience in this area?

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

When I searched the BP Forums for "commercial valuation" and "commercial value-add" I saw some information about people finding deals where the seller wanted to sell a commercial property for when it was "Stabilized" - but this seems slightly different than making improvements that go beyond filling vacancies.Obviously I have far less experience than Brandon Turner!

Quote from @Zenna Weis: Yes, you can charge the tenant for the repair or replacement if they were the cause.I'm not a licensed plumber, but I have enough experience to believe this is an exaggerated case.
