There is a a leaky faucet in third floor bathroom which has created damage to second floor's bathroom ceiling in addition to some other possible pipe/water issue as it was mentioned that after taking a shower water was found directly outside of the bathroom on the floor of the third floor apartment .  

Might be tougher to blame them for watching this if it got stopped up with leaves that were not their fault.Now if they stuffed a rag in the drain (in the lease or not) I would think they would be negligent and be responsible for this repair.Might be best to make this as idiot proof as humanly possible to prevent or minimize issues with this.Maybe also setup an inspection in the fall after leaves have fallen to check this specifically along with rest of property.

It is probably easier to pick apart your monthly budget to create savings than it is to find a way into real estate with no money. 

I think Miami Beach and all cities should be very tough on short-term rentals, but allow it to those who manage the property well as a fulltime BnB, not within an apartment or condo complex that's mostly residential, or in an area where having a lot of people coming in and out wouldn't affect the neighbors.

Also, potentially as part of transactions where parties agree to sell businesses or other assets or other properties and the transfer of title is just a part of those larger transactions.

The way this should work is you get a loan for 90% of the Purchase Price and 100% of the rehab costs.As the contractor completes a phase and inspection is done for said phase then a draw is released.

I'm under contract on a duplex and one of my unacceptable conditions was the foundation which showed signs of significant movement (see below pics from inspection report).

I have around 25k in cash and I have around 680 credit score (currently improving) with a part time job (20 hours/week).

My main lease prohibits washer/dryers in the units unless we give written permission (which would be the addendum).Here's what mine looks like:THIS ADDENDUM IS HEREBY MADE A PART OF THAT CERTAIN LEASE AGREEMENT EXECUTED ON _______________ BETWEEN _______________________ (“Tenant”) AND ______________________ (“Landlord”) Rental Unit Address:This agreement serves as consent from the Landlord to permit Tenant(s) to attach and use a clothes washer and/or dryer within the aforementioned rental unit under the following conditions:Any damage to the Premises caused by water originating from the washer and/or its connecting hoses will repaired by the Landlord at the undersigned Tenant(s) expense.Tenant agrees to regularly maintain and clean lint/debris from the dryer unit itself as well as attached ducting.
