I've considered simply inputting into the spreadsheet the total income/expense from my PM as a single lump sum every month, and then adding only the other expenses (insurance, property tax, loan interest, remodeling costs) as individual line items, since there aren't as many of those. 

We initially offered $15k in concessions, which was decreased to $8k, but then we got nearly 100% items on the inspection report resolved before closing.How did you finance the deal?

Ad Valorem Tax is based on an item’s assessed value, so ad valorem property taxes refer to the assessed value of a property.

Not a bad price, I would have the co tractor break the quote down in labor/Marerial and line item everything. 

The property manager will send you an itemized statement and security deposit refund (if any).Document everything and request a pre-move out inspection if you think it will help.

If you wish, you can have a "welcome package" sent to your new tenants upon move in.. it comes with a nice note and a nice assortment of items that are useful when moving into a new place. 

Smells, mold, termites, punch list items and updating needed. 

Ended up the landlord was in the will for certain items....at the end of the day do the right thing...you will not regret it and karma pays back double+...especially during the cold wintry Christmas season 

Success is not a nice linear path and when you get to a specific task/point and you move on to the next item. 

Keep flood insurance in mind and focus on the items that would cause your insurance rates to be higher.
