No one resides there, as far as I know it just needs cosmetic repairs.

An inspector went through the property already - he didn't find anything besides cosmetic issues.My real question is $331/month profit a good deal?

The house is underwater; will not appraise for anywhere near what I owe, needs some cosmetic work but a sound building.

Unless you're trying to keep up with other options for the tenant or plan to raise rent, you probably should stop the cosmetic rehab.

Rehabbing properties that have more work than cosmetic work can be challenging if you're not a contractor.

We have bought turn-key to total cosmetic guts.

I've never worked in Maine, but getting access permits is a pretty routine thing.

You should not have to spend more than $1500 with labor for these cosmetic repairs.

If the current water heater is good still, you might be able to save it for another property, sell it on Craigslist, or maybe trade it with somebody for something of value to you.Throughout our routine maintenance activities, I ALWAYS replace furnaces and water heaters with direct vent or electric units, because I know it is only a matter of time before I have to deal with the chimneys, even if I no longer use them.

No major problems with the house just a full cosmetic rehab on a 2700 sq ft home which is why the budget is so high.
