@Josh Caldwell and @Jeanni Prescan i just settled a property this week where there was a holdback (an escrow ) set up to cover PA State Inheritance Tax liability, and I had another one two weeks ago, so I've had money taken from the proceeds on two settlements in two weeks going to Dept of Revenue for PA Inheritance Tax.We've also had hundreds of settlement, where the owner of the PA real estate lived in another state and "assumed"  that since they weren't PA residents that they didn't have to pay the Tax. 

For larger projects, I usually set a $ per unit per year based on the asset class (i.e., $250 per unit per year for B class apartments).

I am trying to set up a time frame schedule and budget on how much this will cost me.

I set a meeting for Saturday, sent a letter citing her violations, and a second letter to make my point clear. 

The worse that could happen with conventional loan on your investment property would be that you'd have to pay PMI if the equity falls under 20%, so if your cashflow can take that, I think you are all set? 

It's free and once you set it up initially you don't have to mess with it again. 

While my experience is limited, it sounds like setting up a set of good criteria for tenants and then following them without exception is one of the best ways to avoid problems. 

I want to follow the BRRRR strategy  and self manage while I am here and work to set in place good management before returning to CO.Like I said I just got out here a week ago and am just starting to network and learn the area.

Depending on the duration of your tenant, you can calculate the amount of extra money needed to set aside for this expense.

@Kashif Riaz depending on how you set Podio up it can be a help or a hinderance.
