If your electric is metered separately, you also might see an extra house meter, which would charge you for common area electricity, such as shared hallways, basements, exterior lights etc.

It depends on the property but at each vacancy I like to do something that is either deferred maintenance or a light rehab. 

@Cristian Galvan are you open to a light rehab? 

I think a more "hands on" approach would put him light years ahead from anyone in his circle. 

It was in bad shape so we took a private loan from my parents to renovate 2/3 units, and have been doing work on the property ourselves despite not being licensed (I have done exterior painting, drywall repair, light fixture replacement, small things like that).

Currently out of need myself (wife and two kids), parents, and two of my special needs brothers are doing a light remodel to the house (mostly due to age or poor construction).

HINT (assuming you have more than just a flip phone): wait til dusk, turn all the lights on in the house, and take a landscape picture of your exterior.

Plus, if I have some "Smart" features, I could do smart lighting, connect thermostat and all that to the same hub. 

They’re not restricted by any specific bank’s new appetite for deals or products they offer, and can utilize their hundreds of lending relationships to find the lender who will do the deal.In every market, but especially in this one, a good commercial mortgage broker is worth their weight in gold.

I've pretty much settled on a light gray for all of the walls and white trim and ceiling.
