So far I have 1099, Advertising & Marketing, bank charges & Fees, Capital Expenses (for remodels) Car & Truck, Contractor, depreciation, donations, Employee benefits, insurance, interest paid, inventory assets, job supplies, legal &professional services, loans/points, meals & entertainment, office expenses, Rent & lease, repairs & maintenance, salaries & wages, taxes & licenses travel, utilities.

I would budget a little more money for utilities, because if your property is vacant, utilities get switched to you, which you should keep up for at least property showings and such. 

Find out who is paying the utilities; gas, water, electric, etc.

I was interested in single family or small multi family real estate utilizing a buy and hold strategy with decent cash flow. 

Currently renting my basement out to a single mother and her child since last March, original rent was $1575 (all utilities) and I saw her situation at the time and dropped it to $1500 for a 12 month lease with all utilities included, she purchased a electric charging vehicle less than two months after moving in so obviously taking full advantage of all utilities included.Two months ago, she had a boyfriend stay with her and told me that it was temporary while he is looking for a new place.

They have a responsibility to ensure transfer and/or cancellation, just like they would with utilities.

Looking forward to getting together with any and all active BP members in the NW FL area at MeetUps, industry events, etc. 

I have ~ 15 years in the construction industry under my belt with both residential (GC) and commercial (retail PM) experience.

In this industry, both sides have been burned.
