It's costly, time consuming to try to get the smell out.Good luckGino

We did one showing and the lease was signed 2 days later after we did all the background check.

But lately it has come to situation where student sign 12 month lease, decide to vacate in the 11th month but property manager doesn't let them without paying for the last month which then students decide to stay through that last month.

We have 12-doors in Detroit that we still own and self-manage, all of which have gone up in value 2-3x.

Do you know how much the repairs should REALLY cost vs just being told this is the price?

the inspection was easy but indicated I needed to add screws to the condenser to attach to platform (seems reasonable and no idea why contractor did not do it, he also trusted me to do it as no reinspection and all signed off), but more than a year to get the permit opened. 

People are popping this stuff all across the smokies and nobody is renting them except maybe a few weekends during peak fall coming up.

By recognizing the potential in a low-cost property and acting quickly, we avoided complications and captured a solid profit.

If they are paid off, then it really depends on the rent and operating costs.

Purchase price: $350,000 Cash invested: $12,000 We recently purchased a townhouse with a grant that covered nearly $20k for downpayment and closing costs.
