Then the contractor who did the install will say 'That's not my fault, they broke one of the lines' or 'it's a POS system from Amazon what did you expect, call the manufacturer', or 'I just installed it, I didn't warranty it', etc (especially if the tenant bought it and the contractor is just installing it)My thinking is if the owner approves/recommends the contractor to do the work, it's then their responsibility to make sure it's done right, and their liability thereafter because it's their property after all.

I love this house and don’t want to lose it, I would like to add houses in the long term and build a portfolio. 

Looking to get more connected with the local investor community on my journey to develop, design, build and hold multifamily properties.

We have a lot of experience remodeling homes and building new homes but we want to get rid of the middle man.

Learning about various investment approaches has been overwhelming and taking that initial step toward building passive income streams seems daunting.

Most college kids don't have anything saved so you are building the right away.

Building roads and extending utilities comes after a lot of other expensive and time-consuming work.

I agree with Adam that there's not enough information here to say who is at fault.If you are spending all your income on maintenance after three years, then I would say you are being cheated by the PM or you bought a real dump.Personally, I would suck it up and find an expensive, but reliable, contractor to visit the property with me and make an assessment of what needs to be done to fix the property and stop the bleeding.

Although forthcoming and we appreciate the honesty, it does not build confidence in the process.

I am licensed in NY and CT so I was going to go to CT and buy a number of single families or a multifamily building but I am indecisive on whether I should go to CT or Jersey...or both.
