Lease states, "Lesee shall be responsible for arranging for and paying for all utility services required on premises" 4.

One of the greatest things about the BP forums is the fact that you can ask a question and not be solicited by people to purchase their products and/or services and if people want to advertise their services or solicit business, they can...

We have someone that we've been working with for the last couple years but I'm not happy with the service as of late.

They are gross rent estimates that include the rent plus the cost of all tenant-paid utilities, except telephones, cable or satellite TV service, and internet service.

I think of it as a vendor line of credit that MUST be paid back when the unit is placed in service.

My understanding is the Philly is one of the hottest rental markets so was wondering should I be looking for a one bedroom condo, two...downtown or on one of the train lines a little outside Philly?

For those just coming off of BP or a guru training course that have none of the above.. you need it all.it took me 3 years to land a bank in Charleston SC  even though I domicile on the west coast.. but I kept trying now I have a great banker there and we are his ONLY out of market borrower.. but he did just raise his interest rate from 5.5 to 6. 

If you could pick them up at 60-65% ARV (seller carry lenders typically don't have robust notes and deeds of trust, servicing notes, and pay histories) and work with the borrow to refinance at or near a full payoff, you'd make a killing.

We have Home Rental Services, M&M Property Management and MRE Property Management as vendors here at MAREI and we have had no complaints on any of them. 

Right now in particular, I'm currently fighting with the hot water tank & gas furnace, hoping to find someone who could check those out without me having to contact a major company to come out for a service call and then be upsold into purchasing a new unit.
