I tend to agree with @Andrew Syrios, it's not good practice to adhere too tightly to 1% or 2% rules, however I do think they're good for sweeping through a large list of potential properties and eliminating ones that just won't pencil out.

I'd do a conservative fixed amount, then sweep quarterly or so manually the extra you need.    

Debris/sweep upEach area would bump the price $4,000 or so if I were to split it evenly (total rehab from a contractor is $25,000).Do you guys like or dislike this idea?

There is a risk associated with investing in real estate, stocks, or any business, and to belittle that by making a sweeping statement like "the odds are heavily stacked in your favor" is a very poor way to give advice. 

Wow, from one example of anti-depressants, you can make this wide sweeping generalization about Scandinavia?

This is again due to investors sweeping in and creating gentrification.

I wouldn’t make sweeping judgements about a bad exception.

Even if it looks pretty on the outside, you want to make sure you combo over the house and do sewer inspections and oil tank sweeps, check septic, etc. so that you've covered all the bases.

If you have to dust, clean windows, sweep and mop, no, you can't deduct that from the security deposit.

They did not even sweep the floors, the appliances which they received brand new are now filthy, shower has growth from moisture and the windows are dusty with dead flies on window seals.
