Make sure the electrical is updated or plan to update.

A property I am interested in buying currently has the landlord pay for water, gas, and sewage, while the tenets pay for electricity. 

The reason I ask is we are pitching this model to friends that may want to invest and get involved and I want to build an accurate performa.That being said, do you all have insight on what the original startup cost is for furnishings, small appliances such as coffee machines and first round of consumables (ie coffee, cleaning supplies, toilet paper etc)?

Unrelated, they also used soap in our hot tub requiring extensive cleaning.

There is definitely some minor exterior work that can be done-cleaning up landscaping, adding shutters, finishing the fence, edging the driveway, etc.

In taking it off the wall it appears to be powered by electrical. 

In general Clean and neat are acceptable in my area in most instances.

It had not yet hit the market, so we moved very cleanly and quickly.

Fresh air,clean water and the distant sound of a river is peaceful and soothing.
