With one or two uncomplicated rentals, though, you really shouldn't be paying a CPA more than $1000 to handle your local, state, and federal tax returns.You find your lawyer the same way, by poaching an experienced investor's real estate lawyer.

Also, I agreed to handle any repairs under $1500.

Hello, I'm interested in understanding the responsibilities of a property owner that would not be handled by a property manager (or that would be a la carte items).

What's the best way to handle this?

If the tenant has an active renters insurance policy, most likely, their policy would handle the displacement.

Let you PM handle everything.

Are there any provisions in the lease to handle the months when the utilities go above what you expected?

Moving forward, I would add the cost of landscaping to the rent and handle it yourself. 

Hey @Braden Just,MK3 Construction handles rental property renovations, not sure about the historical tax credit piece though. 

Sounds like you have a good handle on things.
