I want to do my buissness the right way and treat people fair.

Should I just treat the net amount received as my "gross rent", and then deduct all of my expenses from this gross rent?

That is how I treat others that do not have the expertise I do in some areas.

This is going to be a home where I am going to live but I have always thought of a house as a potential cash flow investment and so I will treat it as though I am paying myself rent, running the same metrics I would if I was renting to a third party.

I think ODU is little too expensive now. and being an ODU graduate i've seen how bad they treat those houses.

., was in the account.The same tenant was late with the January rent, another $50 late fee.The Bank charges you a late fee if your payment is not made on time,I treat the tenant the same way.Raymond

I have to treat every call like this one today.

I too believe people need to educate themselves, be professional, treat people right, and generally be real (not too salesy).

I have not owned the house long so I do not know the history... if it has been treated.

They say they will treat for the bugs once the current tenant moves out, but how do I know it will work?
