Depending on the type of investment property you are looking for and the amount I have a guy.

What is reasonable amount to charge for a 3 family home....fire alarm system set-up and monitoring?  

I handled the outstanding bills after making sure the bills amount and get the sellers to also put in some money to cover around 40%.

That way if they pay the rent amount but not the utility/late fee, we can deduct the utility/late fee amount due and hit them with late rent because they didn't pay the full amount of rent. 

@Gilbert Dominguez I have a certain amount of reserves I keep for emergencies with the property.

This is where a lot of investors get into trouble because they look at their balance sheet and pat themselves on the back because of the "equity" they have in up markets, only to realize that it doesn't actually convert into the same amount of cash when it's time to liquidate. 

Then I asked, would you leave that amount of money on the table?
