Hi,I am interested in a particular single house located in Boston, MA that has two floors with 7 bedrooms.

It is clean and simple.

Plus since the tenant is in the state of packing, a lot of items are in a state of flux, with multiple showings, I just hate a tenant to blame something on my showings - "I had an iPad on top of the coffee table this morning, and it's gone".So I typically wait till the property is vacated and I had a chance to clean it to show it, but I like to hear from other landlords who have showned their units during the last weeks of occupancy.

The tenant didn't report the issue immediately because the floors had already been warped.2.

I will also add that your lenders must be very, very green to have agreed to be in a lender position with such a high LTV and that many senior liens above them.I would advise that you clean this up and have a reasonably LTV and not 9 deeds of trust against it.

Properties where say there is a business on the bottom floor and apartments on top.

I have garnered a wealth of information from Bigger Pockets, since I started browsing this site, and the information provided, is all practical, cut to the chase topics - geared towards personal development, as well as giving a hands on approach to investing.My background is in the administrative/clerical field, in addition to have owned and operated a cleaning business for 8 years, then went into the insurance, then medical field.

I'm just applying the 50% rule that says 50% of gross scheduled rents will go to vacancy, expenses (taxes, insurance, routine maintenance, make ready costs, tenant damage in excess of deposits, utilities at least when its vacant, CPA fees, legal fees) and capital (roofs, floors, appliances, furnaces, sewer lines, etc.)

The house needs paint and flooring, has some holes in the sheetrock, and is missing appliances (stove and dishwasher).My long term goal is to own it as a rental.

New hardwood floors, vanity upgrades, kitchen countertops, bathroom tile, carpet and of course new wall and ceiling paint.
