Can anyone from the area recommend a cleaning service? 

Found them off the Quickbooks website under the Support/Find a QB ProAdvisor section and they basically held my hand through the whole process of how to do enter transactions, import my credit card statements online, cleaned up my chart of accounts, etc.

My theory is if the current tenants are good, clean,quiet and pay on time then work with them.

Once your goals are defined, it’s easier to establish your investing criteria.

Organized makes everyones life here in the office easier, and that allows us to work on your loan in a better state of mind.

I know it's easier to start your own thread, but I highly suggest you first go dig around the forums and read old threads.

I was informed by a neighbor that as recently as a couple years ago, the one house was basically a brothel, it's been cleaned up once the neighbors got the police involved but I imagine the tenants aren't the best.   

Clean up the property.2.

I pay 16% management fee, but that includes all maintenance calls, snow removal, lawn care, rent collection, evictions, inspections, rental-ready, picking up trash, cleaning.
