Do to the state mandates that require 100% reserves in all categories, combined with the rising cost of their neighborhood insurance policy, my strong recommendation is you find out what further anticipated spikes in association dues & if any possible special assessments are looming.

I suspect it's an old line that failed and required replacement.

Frankly, I'm sure you do a good job in the space where you work.

There’s a ton of investment pouring in, job growth, and a growing demand for housing.

Looking for ways to expand my network as well as possible job opportunities. 

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

We just really wanted to see if we can get something back because they are really bad at the job and have cost us many thousands of dollars (if not more).   

Its a great idea, but you will need to consult the township in order to understand their requirements for liveable space.

Never leave tools on a job.

Over this time I have acquired my contractor team and have vetted them through my job as a property manager, figured out my strategy(Off Market/Deep buying) and location.
