The main fresh water line probably comes to the house straight from the water meter.

I worked at a student apartment complex and we often saw financial aid as a main source of income for our tenants.

My main question and I would like to get input from experienced people is about closing and refinancing cost.

I wanted to get insight on how to market this home to find and attract the right kind of teant/buyers at this price point.

This was one of those "good ideas on paper" but the implementation did not yield the intended result.I never tried it with current tenants, as they are all MTM.As far as attracting new clients, my strategy has always been to have my units just under market and/or be in better shape than the competition's and provide superior service. 

The main reason why I am "giving her a chance" is because I am not in a good position to handle this turnover at the moment. 

I don't want to repeat everything in my profile but I'm looking at several markets in Texas, Maine, New Hampshire, and Kentucky.Currently I'm active duty Military working in a medical administrative field.

I guess the question is what are the reserve requirements.. and keep in mind they are for your own good.lack of reserves was one of the main reasons investors in the landlording business fail.

I would put it on the tenant, mainly because for financial purposes they will have to take over those payments once the house is theirs anyways.That being said I know my HOA does not allow transfer of fees to a tenant so I have to pay myself every month.
