Wonder if anyone has run into the issue I'm havingMy wife and her parents went in on a duplex together and the three of them are all on the title and loan.My wife and I are in escrow on a house in Citrus Heights.

Finally a fixed fee could work, but same underlying issue exist which is getting an accurate estimate of their consumption.I understand they're perspective, but I just feel like the tenant is just trying to cut corners.

Turns out inexpensive kitchen updates pay off big time when you sell your home, with homeowners recouping an average of 85% of their investment.6 updates you can make to your kitchen without renovatingDid you know that a minor kitchen renovation project costs around $22,000 and a major kitchen remodel can set homeowners back $65,000?

A few important things I would be looking for:1) the experience and credentials of the broker who supervises the company as well as the lead property manager2) the services they offer and how they line up with your needs and expectations3) the use of technology to make their job and yours easier 4) if they have a landlord-tenant attorney on retainer to help guide them on legal issues (not to mention the creation of lease agreement, landlord forms and notices, etc.)5) their process and policy for a) listing, b) application, c) tenant selection, d) routine inspections, e) maintenance services, f) property and tenancy update reports to you, g) lease enforcement policy, and f) move-out process.6) property owner reviews (you can't always rely on Google reviews, because they may not reflect actual quality of the company, but still) 7) beneficial programs for both owner and tenant 8) a property management agreement that would indicate they know what they're doing and have the experience to know what matters in a PMA.

Because my issue is that since I bought the property this 15th they will be paying for may but I would like to have them start paying the rent for the month forward.

Is it a major concern? 

The issue is, that the house he bought to flip, I guess is in a "not so desirable" neighborhood in that market.  

I'm aware that K1's are usually accepted and viewed as ordinary income with 2-years returns, however I'm struggling to find a lender that can decipher the difference between a private investment that issues a K1 and a publicly traded stock such as Enterprise Products, Williams, or Energy Transfer Partners.
