The official term is "capitalized." 

I'm looking for something that is not necessarily "official" as costs do change.

It also suggest that is a market not meant for rentals... this is starting to make sense why the authorities are having so much issues with airBNB.

Unless you're able to get the local authorities to issue you the proper permits, it will be very difficult (if not impossible) to build anything in those areas.Will the soil on the property pass a "perc test"? 

Make flyers and post them around town (gas stations, supermarkets, etc).Make signs with a brief description and your phone number and place on the property and busy intersections near the house but check with your local authorities first because they can be a pain in the ***!

I set who will be doing the job, and I authorize any work and cost associated with it....once the contractor gets to the job and inspects etc, they need to contact me if additional work above what we discussed needs to be done..... the contractor contacts the tenant to set up a convenient time for both.

If its officially designated historic that can get very complicated in some locations. 

However,  we have had problems with other Section 8 tenants and the Section 8 housing authorities in that area are challenging to deal with.   

This solves a lot of first-time homebuyer/investor concerns and gives them an opportunity to get started sooner.Looking forward to the official launch!

They're still wrong for what they did but you need to be honest and accept your own role in this.By the way, if they are licensed then you can report them to the real estate commission or whatever the governing authority is.
