I tell my tenants to download TASKRABBIT app for apple or android.

FB, Zillow, Trulia etc etc .......and look....compare the units that are somewhat similar to yours...bedrooms, bath, location, condition etcA lot of the "services" just use some algorithm based on bedroom, bath and sq footage.... they don't account for condition and locationSo do your own "apples to apples" search

The tree in front of her yard was in full bloom, it was a crab apple bee. 

It's apples to oranges, and it's essential that you understand the benefits and detriments of any market before you jump in.

Buying Apple stock, Tesla and all those big names which have been stable are at a 15 percent discount currently which can easily be beaten by real estate strategies.Cash flow is king my friend!!!!

Make sure all the bids include the same thing and you're comparing apples to apples, but don't get too bent out of shape if one contractor has a quote that looks like an insurance settlement and another gives you a quote that looks more like mine.Also, most contractors don't charge for quotes.

We find that "bad apple" tenants will leave on their own once we take over management.

The same thing the electric company, water company, gas company, insurance company, Verizon, Apple, Dropbox, Cozy, Microsoft, Lowes, plumber, electrician, accountant and HVAC company give me. 

@Catherine Barnes Just to be clear, if the damage was caused by an action of the owner/occupant above or by plumbing within the other unit interior, the condo association would have no responsibility.....only if it were a leak in the associations pipes (between the walls, ceiling/floor.

My point is make sure you are comparing apples to apples.Vacancy is the largest expense that most landlords will incur.
