The water went down to the basement from the kitchen ground and the ceiling of the basement was completely ruined (I finished the basement not long ago).

I live in Monument (Colorado Springs) area and want to start looking at flips/rehabs and finding some less expensive rental units.

Also, you don't have to, but if you get the property you'll have to pay them anyway, spring taxes.

Then we had a "flood" from where the hose in the back of the fridge had busted and my daughters room, kitchen, bathroom, hallway, hallways closet and my bedroom closet all had water under carpets and the came and vacuumed, twice and i have work orders for that then lastly i went to go get a pair of shoes i hadn't wore in a week or two and there was mold all over my shoes in the closet!

Will pay off at 6% interest over 7 years.Will rent for $550 once complete.Taxes: $900yr, Water: $600yr, Property management: 10% (all ready to be in place when house is done)Won't be making much until it is paid off after 2 years.

Does anyone have recommendations of who use in cedar rapids for water heater repair/replacement?

Kitchen appliances, water heater and furnace at half life.  

So how much life is left on your roof, water heater, furnace, decks, garage door, sidewalk, driveway and then take the years left and divide by the cost it takes to fix it.
