You deal with a product, clients, budgets, accounts payables, accounts receivable, taxes, etc.

It'd be many thousands more to shore up the neighbors foundation and I have no idea what they spent to get the gas line ran or replace the heater.I'd say if you budget properly or "know a guy" that can take care of this for you, go for it, but I wouldn't count on a $500-$1,000 fix.

I would strongly be honest with yourself about a budget an make sure you are able to buy a house and manage your debt.

We're budgeting $1,000 a month for the time being and trying to fine-tune our ads, keywords, etc.

The entire budget may be prepared by the PM, but ultimately its the HOA board that approves the final operating budget for the HOA.

Then I try to replicate the look based on my budget.

In our case our finances are rock solid and every budget is well funded.

Future projects are budgeted at my negotiated finance rate.

Buying an owner's title policy at acquisition ought to be an essential (read that cheap) part of an owner's budget, unless you have some title expertise and the risk/reward ratio makes sense for the venture.

The budget is kinda tight thats why I ask.
