Because what I mean by those "unexpected repairs" is that I simply set aside a set amount of the gross rental income each month as sort of a safety net aka just incase money for things such as a leaking pipe that I didn't know was going to happen before it happened thus it was "unexpected"So... technically I can't take out that 1% because that's just my own safety net savings I set aside but from that savings if something does happen that year and I have to make a repair that does end up as an "operating expense" since I have now spent that money and not just set it aside like with the unexpected repairs moneyHope this isn't too confusing to understand but now that I am reading over this I think I have answered my own question :DHa, yes those = unexpected repairs (which you could also simply call "reserves").

We've had the best luck with doing short rentals, loading up all the trash within 24 hours, and getting the dumpster out of there.Not sure what companies operate where you're located, but we use a company called Blue Bin Dumpsters, and they offer 24-hour or 3 day rentals.
