We haven't had a vacancy in Newark that lasted longer than 5 days, and that included the clean out and turn-over.

attic is so clean now.AttiCare did an amazing job, took the guys about 5hrs, but they worked so efficiently, and pricing was absolute best!

Many would pay $4k a month for a shoebox that feels brand new vs a bigger space that is outdated or not too clean. 

If I  pay to have the mess cleaned up, will the owner have to repay me if she decides a year down the road to redeem the lot?

I've routinely seen people purchase and rehab all in for under 50K and get rents of 800+ per month.On the opposite end of the spectrum are clean houses in the far north east that you could purchase and rehab for under 130K, and usually expect a rent rate around 1200-1300 per month just as an example.

Maybe 25% of the usual inquiry amount and I usually hold open houses, but can't do that now, so I don't know how it would have compared.I've had no problem with my usual contractors coming in to work solo to clean the carpets or get the hot water heater replace.For rent day, it was all the same.

I know BP tries to keep members clean and clear, but in my experience most are all talk and no walk.

The good part of the family emptied the entire house into a dumpster and had a old motorhome towed away . ( I got pics of THEM doing it ) So today I am doing a second cleaning /sanitizing and the crack head daughter in law shows up . " Where the xxxx is my stuff ?"  

Still doing things like cleaning light fixtures, deep cleaning bathroom and recaulking as required, and lots of painting still to go.

I'm probably most concerned about the housekeeper bringing something into the house when she cleans but she too is very aware of the problems.
