On a personal note, I do not favor contractors who do not charge for estimates as a normal practice because they are not adding true value to their field and not to be trusted.

Did they charge you anything while they had you in thier house?

Small community bank where you could deal directly with the guys in charge.

., and some of the smaller items they're handling themselves so they're just charging material not time.

I usually charge a $300 pet cleaning deposit, so if I do that and not collect the extra per month we're talking a difference of $60.So, thanks for reading all of that, what would you do?

Will you be able to charge more in rent if you remodel?

If I was charging 20% or 30% interest on a note, then yes that would be.

Most management companies will charge you for placing a tenant in addition to the cost of managing.

:I charge $5 daily.

My guess is that by the time you pay your extra pm, cleaning, and maintenance expenses, there will be very little left over from the extra you were able to charge (making the feasibility low).
