Insurance, garbage, snow removal/lawn care, maintenance.Then will be your cap ex which is a "below the line cost"  How old is your roof?

You can literally have your lawn guy represent youAdditionally, any suit filed now would not be heard until after May so an additional months rent will be due. 

Artificial indeed. 

The deck looks great.So pulling my estimates from my first post and adding in my actual numbers:Purchase Price: $115,000 $110,000Down payment 25%: $28,750 $27,500Closing costs: $5,000 $2021.45Mortgage: 4.5% 4.125% for 30 years = $437/mo $399/moEstimated renovations: $15,000Estimated Monthly Revenue: $550/unit = $2,200/moEstimated Management (10%): $220/moProperty Taxes: $165/mo $163/moInsurance: $160/mo $235/moEstimated Maintenance (10%): $220/moEstimated Lawn care: $150/moEstimated Vacancy rate 10%: $220/mo (estimated high)Income - Expenses = $628/mo $593/moSo that is $7,536 $7116 cash flow annually with an estimated $48,750 $44,521 cash outlay means 15.4% 15.98% cash ROISo my estimated ROI so far even with the changes is about the same.  

I've never seen them artificially bid up a property that I've also have clients bid on, so I'm not sure about that.  4)  Usually it takes a few days. 

This question is in regards to lawn maintenance.  

A lawn service. 

While it's true that you only have one roof, one lawn, one tax bill.... all of these items are MUCH bigger. 

I had to hold/store the tenants belongings for up to 30 days upon eviction in NJ, so I would ask your attorney before you just toss their belongings out onto the lawn....

I have a tenant who I lowered rent by 50$ and cuts the lawn and handles snow.
