The typical PM is motivated to fill vacancies - - period - - and that's a real problem which you have already discovered for yourself.Contracts for PMs are written to their benefit and typically there's tons of 'extra fees', like move-out, move-in, cleaning and even showing, so read all the fine print.

But in general I think what drives me most to this category is I enjoy making a rental unit that is modern, clean and would be enjoyable for myself (even if it has vinyl plank flooring).

I understand the tenant may have paid on time for several years and may have been a good tenant, but if I provided safe, clean, affordable housing and good customer service during this period, we had an even exchange.

Here is my plan to improve my world, one house at a time:First, we had to clean up our debts/credit score (we used Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover).  

I am getting ready to do that this week, buy it, clean it up and sell it to a buy and hold person.

YOUR NUMBERS, IF CORRECT --- will entitle you to take care of 6 families that are responsible to pay you rent each every month they rent from you, your other job is to collect rent, listen to maintenance problems, attend rent court, clean up the vacancies and deal with housing code violations, securing the property from squatters, taking care of the lawns and snow all the while making mortgage payments.  

With a little hard work you probably have some stuff you can clean up.

HOWEVER they still pay someone to manage it, clean, etc.You can find properties that cash flow here in the metro area if you actively look.

General cleaning or damage deposits can be charged, if all residents are similarly charged.Please remember that a housing provider can hold a resident with an assistance animal liable for any damage the animal causes.Can a housing provider limit the number of assistance animals?

It usually lasts for three days and then there will be a clean up sale for one more day after that.
